That reminds me of an airshow I went to in the early 80's. The "Coors Silver Bullet Jet" (BD-5J) was to perform. I walked up and commented to my wife "Oh look, they've got a giant scale model of the plane too."

The pilot overheard me and said "No, this isn't a model, this is the real thing." Wow, it really was tiny!
