If you look at the SF08 group picture you can see it standing on wing tip behind the group.

Big? Ya.

Look at it compared to the USS wing that says Abby Normal on it.

I emailed Robert, he goes by Crash22 on the SPAD board. He has pictures and video of it in flight. Hopefully he'll find the email and be on here to answer any questions about his gynormous plane.

CRASH 22

Well I'll try and keep a LONG story short. It all started a lond time ago. I took three DEB;S and glued them together.

It had three Webra .55 on it.

After this crash I used a down rain drain ( Square pipe) to make it a single engine for SOT.

I broke that fuse

So I made a BUHOR fuse for it.

This is it's current state.

I got this engine in a yard sale for $ 80.00.

Just for fun, here's a video of a 200" wing that almost took out a $6,000 airplane.
( Note the SMALL tail area.)
