Went to Fry's and saw this little number sitting on the shelf there and decided to give it a shot. It's made by Aeroplane Heaven, sold by Just Flight. $29.99US and very worth it, lots of paints, lots of variants, great sounds, plenty of views, and some nice VC's.

Very cool

What's the story on that wheeled cargo pod?

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Baby will have to do without diapers this week, I needed this bird Tongue

The wheeled pod is called a Speed Pack and it is was used to carry extra cargo or freight, and the wheels were for better ground handling.

Cool, I've never seen one of those before, thanks for the explanation Wink
