I must say I was disappointed by the flying scenes in "The Aviator" --
not enough of them, and the XF-11 and Spruce Goose never looked like
anything other than Photoshop-generated images :-(


Actually, those were both very large R/C models, according to Air & Space
magazine.

We're talking in the hundreds of pounds. (And the Spruce Goose model was
supposedly ELECTRIC powered, which I thought was interesting...)
