The guy who is building this aircraft is actually from BC Canada. Doug didn't provide his name but apparently its close to completion and we'll be getting more pics and hopefully a video as well. Doug is building a same scale CANT Z.506! Ah those beautiful tri-motors :)

Amazing. I have also built flying models in the past and know what It's like to see your creation fly.

Yes it is BIG. To get a better idea just how big it is there needs to be some thing standing next to it, like a person or something. Keep us posted.
