    Aw man I'm sorry for your loss of your sister. Did you crash the two planes, or were they planes you flew before that crashed? Nice memorial then.

    Thanks

    and by few I meant 5 !
    a Cessna 150 (can't remember tail number - engine problems)
    a Cessna 152 (F-OHAK - ran out of fuel - I also had an Ode published in the local paper when that one crashed)
    a Cessna 172 (F-OHAZ - pilot lost control while turning over friend's boat)
    a Cessna 172RG (F-OHAC - pilot put the fuel selector in OFF instead of BOTH)
    and a Cessna 182 (F-GBDL - pilot freaked out when oil pressure gauge read 0, shut down engine and landed plane in the water .... it was a bad pressure gauge)

    my sister's plane was a Twin Otter F-OIQI Air Moorea flight, flight control cable failure :(

    Funny stuff. You guys ain't right. Kathy has always wanted a UFO with flashing LED lights.
    Reminds me of a picture I saw once where someone had put a toy World War II tank in their reef tank. They glued frags all over it. It was their "Frag Tank".

    Now here's a question, The plastic on the models won't emit anything bad into the tank? I had thought of doing that with like a priate ship, but I thought it would be bad?

    that's what I was wondering too, I washed the pieces in RO water first, and built it with with CA glue. no paint, no decals, it's been in the tank for a week now, so far so good :)
