Default The worlds fastest Savex L39?? Video

This Savex L39 was flown at the Laxå meet in Sweden. These planes are usually flown with the Wren44 with 10 lb of thrust - this one was
flown with a Simjet 1200 with 18 lb!! The guy (unfortunately I don't have his name) took off from a steerable dolly and bellylanded on the
grass. I had a real hard time trying to follow the little rocket with my camera - I have no idea how fast this plane flew, but it looked super-
sonic!!

Take a look here: www.av-art.no/filer/modellfly/FastSavex.wmv

PS: The plane was reinforced with carbon at all stress point - if it hadn't been, it would have been torn apart in the air...
