Default What to do when you have too many planes!

Not that you could have too many planes !!

Here's a link to these wire shelves:

The 5 shelves are each 48 inches by 18 inches. The whole thing can be assembled in less than half an hour.

This is a good indication to me that you don't fly enough. Someone who flys often and aggressively will weed out planes to keep the collection low. I now have 10 but I am getting braver and lower all the time. Just this weekend I lost one. I start getting very cautious and careful when I get down to 5.

When I was a bachelor I just hung model planes from the ceiling in my house. No woman to complain about it.

You can never have too many planes!

He who dies with the most planes wins!



If I lost count on how many Jett engines I have....does that mean I have too many?!

You are not flying low enough or fast enough. Your shelf holds planes that the crowds love to see go low and fast. They go nuts when you go fast too low. Don't ask me how I know!!!

Does it count if my planes are really dirty? (Did you see the dirt and oil on my yellow Magnum and what about Ghetto Dust 1 and 2, you can't say that I don't fly them enough!! )

Ok roadtrip,

Are you happy now? Here's the fate of Ghetto Dust 2.... it was a rolling drill bit into the ground in front of a bunch of Revvers at Rabbit
