Off topic, but don't go too far overboard - after all, we are watching...heh.

Video!!

Tue Nov 08, 2005 12:27 am

So I got bored, and I decided to hash together some clips from other videos I had on here and make them into a single video.

Featuring: Mirage, F-5, F-18, F-14 and a few others I think.

Thanks, that was a nice vid.

Thanks that was good shit. Some of those guys got really close to the ground. It looked like a few were less then 15 feet. I would give my left nut to fly one of those things. Thats the truth.

This isn't quite a fighter jet, but for $187 thousand you can have a pretty good time!

Not bad for that kind of money--assuming you're pretty damn handy with tools.

$187 Thousand, I'll take two. :lol:

Actually that is really cool. I don't know, I am handy with carpenter tools, But the stuff I build (houses) don't travle at 500mph and ten's of thousands of feet off the ground. With my ass in it. :) How bout the build time. WOW "8. What is the Building time?

This varies with your time, skill, configuration and whether you utilize builder assist or not. The Excel Build is standard now and if you work a typical work schedule you can have your ViperJet in the skies within 12-18 months. 2000 to 3500 hrs building time would be a good estimate"


I may do this someday. http://www.incredible-adventures.com/fighter_combat_az.html
Check out there home page too. Alot of cool stuff to do. I like the tank thing too.

The trick is, you don't do it all yourself. You form a little club with a total of 4 people, $40-50 grand apiece, all of you work on it. Get it done in probably 6-8 months. One plane used by 4 people doesn't sound too bad.

Is this true?

yep, it just tickles a bit as it goes through the brain pan.

Actually, you can buy a fully restored F-5/T-38 (seen in the video) for about 300K. They even train you how to fly it.

300k? Is that all? Shoot... I'll buy a couple. Who else wants one?
