VAA are downsizing - official

Check out: this link, for 100% proof that Virgin have started downsizing their fleet. As a result, there may be reduction in both seat pitch and numbers of seats on their aircraft...

Edit by mod to shorten link...... Nick

Cool ![^], where do I get one from?

[Pete]

It has to be said - that's pretty impressive!

[Nottingham Nick]

It does get very close to crashing at times. [:0][8D]

That is cool, must be hard trying to fly that in a sports hall.

As were on the subject of Model aircraft check out thissite.

Great fun, though wouldn't like him as captain the way he lands it!

Any landing you can walk away from (or possibly disembark?) is a good one...

Nice vid......weird noise from the engines/motors.
Only seemed to use half the hall though.

Hmm... am I missing something? Surely that's on a wire or something.. otherwise how is it flying?

McCoy,
The joy of today's remote control model aircraft is that it's all wireless. Actually remote control's been around for awhile now.

It's using electric ducted fans alot cheaper than gas turbines.

Hereis a vid of one with 4 gas turbines.

OMG, its a MUST HAVE boys toy, where can I get one.

Oh I see.... never seen them before. The last radio-controlled plane I saw had propellors...

Chuck- I meant a wire holding the plane up to the ceiling! (I didn't realise there were non-propellor radio-controlled aircraft these days..) Doh!

I so want one.... Ill settle for the Boeing and Ill register it as G-VBMW Miss Mini

Wow I want one even though id crash it on its first flight lol:D
It goes really fast aswell, theres one about of the a380 anyone seen that one? http://www.michel-concorde.com/images/a380.jpg
