This is my soon-to-be-finished Stick-40+, still learning to fly the damn things, but I thought I'd build a lighter model than my first attempt, which was a little too heavy to fly well. I considered invasion stripes, but the checkerboard was too cool, so those'll have to wait until I build the next one  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif).

How about computer built?  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) Some friends of mine and I are building this one for FS2000. I'm actually not involved in this project yet though. I did do some stuff though for our new 737s and the DC-9 series. (http://members.aol.com/stevekempfpfg/f27.jpg)
I would however like to get back to RC flying. My dad and I did that 25 years ago when I was small boy.

Actually, considering the level of detail and an ammount of labor, I think $12,500 is a steal.

Oh, computer generated too  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif). A few years ago I did a series of swedish planes for X-plane, here's the one I was most happy with, the J-21. It's basically an attack plane looking a little like the P-38, but not much of a fighter, and it flew for the swedish air force right after the war.

If you want to see the rest of the planes(for X-plane 2, so they won't work with the current version) they're at  http://home.swipnet.se/~w-11503/x-plane/ (http://home.swipnet.se/~w-11503/x-plane/)

Carpet is pretty cool too, eh?

When did they put this thing in here and WTF is it for?

Uh-oh....whoever started this thread is in trouble.  Sunchaser can fill this thread up quickly with pics of the models he has displayed in his house.  I have seen most of them and they are quite a collection.  

Hey how about a good B17 pic there Mr Sunchaser?  Please?   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
