Scale model:



Test flight of inhabited full scale:



Final version would not need pilot inputs. Could be programmed to transport any one person from one parking space to another.

I was watching Ghostbusters Afterlife, and found myself really liking the song "Haunted House" in the credits... Then I saw who performed the song... WOW!!!





And I was blown away by her acting chops... They cast her role perfectly!!!

This got me thinking about seperate recovery of a ‘crew section’ and main airframe on an LPR idea I have lurking…

Slow, but cleaner on rough terrain.

I know of two F111 ejections. One at Mtn Home AFB in Idaho. It was an un-commanded pitch up during lift off and climb out. The crew ejected and landed safely. But with compression fractures of the spine. This was common. The other one an F111 out of RAF Lakenheath in the UK. The crew ejected over the North Sea. They survived the experience with out injury. If they had not been in the capsule the might have made it. This all happened a long long time ago so my memory might be a little fuzzy. But I remember these events fairly well.

I'm guessing the speed was KPH and not MPH.

I like going back to this era.

Still on my list of things to try... I'll never be Toni Bou good though.

Even Toni gets it wrong sometimes. Remember that today...

I wasn't aware of this aircraft until yesterday when I got an email from Fantastic Planet.
They have a resin kit available but it's outside my budget.
Competitor that lost to the legendary Lockheed SR-71:
Convair Kingfish.

My Mk I Escort was great on gravel, but this is the next level (or ten).

Speakers on loud, please. Headphones are even better.

I love rally cars. When we were In England I watched almost every time it was on TV. I grew up in rural Michigan. Lots of dirt back roads. I had a 1971 Torino GT. RWD 302 V8 Auto. I would fly down the roads and hang the rear out on corners. Miss that kind of stuff. Next car was a '76 VW Scirocco, FWD 5 speed. Don't remember what engine it had. Not so much fun. Almost wreaked more than once because of the difference between RWD and FWD.

I *really* would like to find a copy of Sagan's "Cosmos". A similar series (that I DO have a copy of) is James Burke's "Connections" (1/2/3) and "The Day the Universe Changed".

This I think. I don't think I've ever seen it.

If you are pressed for time, just watch the first 30 seconds, and the last 4 minutes. Adam is havin' soooo much fun!

I suspect most of you have watched "How It's Made". Now let's see "How It's ACTUALLY Made"!

A bunch of these have been made for YouTube.
