A Seven-Foot-Long Airbus A310 Model Flying Inside an Exhibition Hall at Incredibly Slow Speeds
A seven-foot-long Airbus A310 model aircraft takes off and flies around a large indoor exhibition hall at a remarkably leisurely pace in this 2011 video shot at the Modell Hobby Spiel, an exhibition for model enthusiasts that is held annually in Leipzig, Germany. The 1/22 scale aircraft was designed and built by model aircraft designer and competitive pilot Martin Müller. It weighs just 10 ounces, which explains the model’s ability to fly at seemingly impossibly slow speeds.The extremely low weight is reportedly achieved with the help of helium inside the fuselage.
