Rob_R 0 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Excellent pictures there OSU. The one picture reminds me of the film Alien with the profile of the nose cone. Regards Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSU 0 Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 It kinda does look like the Alien, I'd never thought of that. Yes, this beast does fly. It is an impressive sight to see. I'll take video if I ever get a chance to see it go aloft again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylle 3 Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I guess it's better not to open the nose-section on the ground when there are gusting winds Cheers, Sylvain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
