I just saw a show on TV about the Erickson Aircrane. The flightgear
aircrane is spectacular. Maybe we could demonstrate building a 400m radio
tower out of 10m sections (virtually) with it? I saw a real aircrane in
person up close at Oshkosh last summer and was even more impressed with the
detail level of the FlightGear model.
Regards,
Curt.
