If you want to see a full scale 3D flight then:

Once clip is loaded put mouse over the image and it will start.

Your answer made me think of another related question. Take those 3D planes for instance, if they are, say, 46% of scale (or size whatever), then what is the reference point? I mean, there isn't really a full scale 3D plane that people actually fly is there? So how can they claim it is 45% scale of a real plane when the real plane doesn't exist?

I more than likely missing a very important fact since I obviously have no idea what I'm talking about with this stuff, but the question makes sense to me.
