[ericr]

thanks !

the mix of pieces fell together funnily easily
and Twin Otter wings are very versatile

Tophe will go mental when he sees this.

Reminds me of the Edgely Optica with that 'bug eyed' look.

I was thinking just that, retro-Optica.

[TheChronicOne]

Very cool!!

When I see something like this I always like to think of it from the perspective of a passenger (or perhaps the pilot when he/she isn't occupied with flying) and how awesome it would be to have such a great VIEW. One of the coolest parts of flying... is looking at the ground!

Yes, thanks steelpillow to have rang the alarm bell! I missed this marvel!
The notify tool seems to have failed, because I changed my navigator, sorry.
Yes, this is one of the most beautiful twin-boomer I have seen, with the Edgley Optica but better as single piece in the whole World!

thanks Tophe !
making you happy makes me happy

I had this kit of the MIR station for some years, second hand and half begun, and I finally did something with,
like a gathering of space craft up there (involving wings from various donors : Twin Otter ; Albatross W4 ; P38 ; CF-100 ; Mi-2 ; Sinagot)

[Tophe]

This is proving the space adventure was already possible in 1918! Amazing!

[TheChronicOne]

Totally was happening! Everything was launched via cannon. 


Very good, bud!! Strange, but good!

[ericr]

when I did it it reminded me of the cafe where all characters meet in Porco Rosso : but then, in space 

[ericr]

to go with the MIR space station, and to re-use all those solar panels in the kit, here are some solar aircraft, across different periods of aircraft history :














and this time I even used the decals !!! 

[PR19_Kit]

Very ingenious Ericr. 

I love the landplane MC-72. 

[Tophe]

Ecologic and good (for the planet and for us!)

[NARSES2]

Love the solar powered Albatross
