Wah...

Time to get a pilot license.

Where to learn?

A nice model subject

I wonder if this is the same plane featured towards the end of the movie "Knight and Day", the one that picked up the villain and then blew up in mid-air(ouch!). When the plane showed up, I was paying more attention to it then the storyline, but the plane was always in the background :>

I like the layout. I think this makes a nice model subject.

89,000 pounds, anyone? Haha.
