Not a Model... For Real
This one just in..video direct..
This crash involved 80% full sized from airshow in Czech Republic..
"80% Nieuport gets it's tail feathers chopped off by an 80% Dr1. Nieuport rolls up and over and dives straight in. Miraculously, the pilot survived with a broken leg, arm and a concussion. Tripe was able to land safely. Apparently the sun was in the eyes of the Tripe pilot, and he never saw the Nieuport."
(Kinda looks like the local RC Field on a Saturday!)

RE: Not a Model... For Real
Man what a sad end to such a cool looking replica. Glad to hear the pilot was ok, from the above post, i could not understand a word they where saying.
Looked like a very cool event with lots of WW1 scale replicas and flying!
Would be awsome to see some mock WW1 dogfight. The closest i got was in the virtual skies of RB3d.
Seeing a plane go done like that would have been a regular occurance for the tommies and germans in the trenches as well.
Many a WW1 aviator sufferd that very same fate with much worse injurys.

RE: Not a Model... For Real
You guys just need to order a hot babe from Russia to be your bride. They have sites on the computer with tons of models on them. They are for real and they will e-mail you until you decide if you want her and then a trip to Russia and you have a super babe for a wife. Best part is most don't speak English so you don't have to talk!lol

I had a boss who got a bride from Russia. They divorced after about 2 years and she took half of everything, including his restaurant I think...

The desk lifted off the ground when I saw her. Good thing my wife wasn't home. She can touch my plane any time.
