sweet! You know there's a big body of water right next to Wittman Field in Oshkosh!! M Oh Mike you know my twisted little mind has already been thinking about that! I was working in my mind also how to get a droppable "AERIAL MINE" that would deploy and such just like the real thing.  i16.photobucket.com/albums/b12/cco23i/Aerial_mine.jpg |
