Re: The Stunning Detail of RC Flying
Dang - I just flew formation with a F86 jet (a giant RC) over the USAF museum's runway in Dayton. I took pictures and did a preview look right after and I had 5-6 good pictures. Now that I am home and trying to down load, they are all missing!!
It is the international RC Jet meet, where the jet in the above video is for now. My buddy who was on the ground at the event (said he has pictures of me-Oh boy?) said that rumors were that the above RC model jet cost $200,000! Now that is an expensive sport if that is true.
