      too much time, too much money.
      -I don't crash, I just land with enthusiasm.

      A couple of 600n's with stuff on them that makes them fly..
      A 550 fbl with even more stuff on it to make it fly
      And a Mars 470 which needs stuff putting on it to make it fly

      And a DX8 too

        They seem to have forgot one thing, how the hell they gonna land without obliterating it..... Yanks prolly think they CAN use the force
        Velocity 50
        Synergy N5
        Fury 55 FBL
        Trex 700

        Light travels faster than sound, this is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak....

              This is whats said about it landing:


              the X-Wing will be fully recoverable. It won't land on its own, but Andy pointed out that they "will use parachute recovery, with three man-rated chutes which will have radio control deployment," like the wings position control

                What they need is to fit elevons to it with the skid landing gear, and glide it down out somewhere like the salt flats, and tape it.
                Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
