keep in mind that this model is 1/10. There are hundreds of models flying that are 1/8 or bigger.
This model maker just happened to decide to base his scale bird on one that was already as
big as you can get.
There must therefore be a lot of reallllly sick guys out there, as scale for scale, their planes are a lot bigger.
Just pickin' on ya' Woody, but EEEEEEHHHH, WRONG!
The Antonov An-124 Ruslan is larger than the C5, and the the six-engine An-225, originally built to carry the Russian Space Shuttle and now in cargo service with Antonov Airlines, is much bigger than both. Wouldn't that be something to see in 1/10 scale!

ps. Just saw a program about the Antonovs on the Discovery Wings Channel - that's how I know. I love cable TV!
