The perfect toy for the older boy, IF the boy is still a video gamer.
I do fly, but I prefer seaplanes. After two Republic RC-3’s, and being aware that if I had been able to stay in AFROTC (bad eyes), I might have flown single engine, but someone else would have decided what I would fly against, etc.
Too bad America signed a treaty against Letters Of Marquise and Reprisal. Otherwise, the wealthy could amuse themselves happily blasting undesirables like the Janjaweed whackos, and assorted, sordid socialists.
I have a neighbor with two GE mini-guns. All he needs is a surplus Cobra and he could do some real good in places like Africa.
I flew with Sea planes and Bush planes a lot as a much younger man, doing mineral exploration work in Canada in the 1970s, mostly Otters, Beavers and Cessna float planes. Many interesting stories.
I really like seaplanes. We used t have Canso Flying boats for water bombers in Newfoundland, and I once say a Sunderland Flying Boat land in Gander lake , on its way to a museum. That was in effect , a two story flying boat, and what a racket it made during take off, which took a long run into the wind!
