Hi All,

I thought you might be interesting in seeing what is thought to be the
only operational R/C Aircraft Carrier in the world. This is a news
story done by a local station here in the Minneapolis, Minnesota, area
a few days ago about a couple of guys in my club. Good story, but the
landings leave a bit to be desired... ;-) Enjoy.

The server must be on someone's dial-up...... slower than molassas in
January.

there isn't no way I would land next to myself like that, the one landing he
is lucky the engine died or he would have been in a world of hurt.

I would have already died from embarassment after messing up so many
landings.

This is just scary!! I know they are flying slow and all but a prop in
the face doesn't care how fast the plane is going. Some kind of cage may
be in order. That and a different method of putting the plane on the
flight deck with the spinning prop fractions of an inch from your arm.
