From '2nd International Model Circus' DVD. The International Model Circus at Cerny la Ferte airfield near Paris, France, is famous for very large model aircraft. This Czech built 80% scale Bristol M.1C monoplane has a wingspan of 7 metres, weighs 105Kg and is powered by a 7-cylinder 800cc engine. DVD available from www.trapletshop.com.
I have a good flying Peter Rake model of the plane. The 80% scale plane here is incredible. I would imagine some spectators that were not part of the show, would think that it is a full scale plane missing the pilot!
