..here's another attempt...

More than once my father had stolen one of my childhood toys (even though I wasn't done with it yet!) and it ended up in an airplane.

The most original would have to be a plastic model Frankenstien that got taken off my brother's self, cut at the torso and glued into an aeromaster. That aeromaster went on to have both miss piggy AND gonzo as pilots.

After my father passed, The plane went to a friend of mine (a person who is called 'unstable' on this board). He asures me that he will recover the plane in pink and reinstate miss piggy at the stick.

There is also a line of kid's juice with bottle tops in the shape of cartoon characters (I can't remember the name of the juice),

But some of the characters are Sylvester, spider-man, the power-puff girls, etc. ONE of these will end up in SOME plane of mine or other.

Sorry for the small picture!

I have lots of strange pilots, here is one of my last builds. I had way to much time on my hands. Slowpoke .40 with a .45 saito special. Homemade balsa cowl and yes even Retracts on this one. I use a beany babby "Husky" as the pilot. Hey the eyes are the same color blue.

Thanks everyone for posting.......although I was starting to get a little worried after CAPtain232 and Visioneer_one posted

You guys are all right aren't you, didn't run into anything, set the drapes and house on fire LOL

Keep them coming folks, I'd like to take a vote much later on -maybe the most unique, funniest, scale, etc. if we get enough

I DON'T HAVE A DIGITAL CAMERA, SO MY FRIEND IS COMING OVER TO SNAP A COUPLE OF PICTURES FOR ME. WILL POST WHEN I CAN.

I REALLY ENJOY POSTS LIKE THIS, I NEED A GOOD

COME ON, LETS SEE SOME MORE OF THOSE PILOTS THAT HAVE MADE IT INTO THOSE PLANES WE HAVE SO PAIN STA KINGLY BUILT THIS WINTER..........

Noth'in special. I sort'a like Williams Bros. Sportsman Pilots, easy to do and versatile.

Regards to all!

I found a squidward doll in Wal Mart and decided to fit him in my slow fly mustang.... I'll have to dig up the camera..

they are casted from Fiberglass!

And one of Wild E....he was in an illfated uproar.

....he is a decendant of the Quasimodo from the movie
"The Hunchback of Notre Dame"....

He claims to be the only flying hunchback around.

Here's "Quasi" doing a pre-flight....looking for a fuel
leak in an Ultra Stick.... :stupid:

"Quasi" overlooks the installation of an O.S. .90 in
a .46 size plane....he is happy about the extra power.

The Great Gonzo flys my 4-star 40

front view:

side view. The cape matches almost perfectly!

Straight from Bikini Bottom......SpongeBob Squarepants! If you have kids, you know who he is....if the kids are grown, it's way too hard to explain! At any rate he does a good job flying my 4*60.

For some reason the guys at the field started calling him Wally. Go figure.

This is what happens when there's only one plane left to pilot and
one-too-many pilots!
Click on pic below anyway, it will come up:

My hog bipe pilot. My four star 60 had Taz, but he was fired do to his poor piloting skills.

Looks like a nice plane, are your sure you want to give him a new job this soon?

I figured that this plane would fly in circles, so I put TAZ at the stick...

Here's another shot of him. It's a Somethin' Extra if you couldn't tell.
