LA FERTÉ 2003-Extreme Giant Scale from France
Your wait is over! For those of you not familiar with this event, it's an annual get-together of IMAA France to host the largest model airplanes in the world….and we do mean large! This year Propwash Video was there and we captured some fantastic airplanes for your viewing pleasure. Our program features 28 one-of-a-kind models ranging from 40 to 450 pounds each. In addition to old favorites like the 325 pound TWA Super Constellation, the 450 pound B-29 and the 80% scale Caudron Adelante Racer there are a lot of new aircraft featured; to name a few, there's a half scale 231 pound ME-109, a quarter scale Mirage, a half scale 15 foot Zlin 526, a half-scale ASK 27 sailplane with a 39 foot wingspan, a 243 pound JU-52, a 70 pound 16 foot Horten Flying Wing, a half scale Tigermoth and a 130 pound Handley-Page Victor Strategic Bomber….anyway, you get the idea. To put the icing on the cake, many of the flights include aerial footage from on-board camera systems. And, oh yes, I almost forgot, there are 4 interviews in English! No subtitled translations this year. If you want to see the largest model airplanes in the world, this one's for you!
