If this was posted before I apologize

How does the saying go? “The difference between men and boys is the price of their toys.”
Note that the fuel load is 10 liters and the burn rate is 1.2 Liters/minute, meaning that it has about an 8.33 minute duration. The clip is 8 minutes and 8 seconds long which means it landed pretty empty.
This is pretty incredible including retractable landing gear, reversible jet engines, brakes.

Thanks for posting, Frenchy. This aircraft is a jaw dropper. I wonder how long it took to build it.
