EZBuild....your grounded. In a cop/buddy movie they'd say you're a "loose cannon", then take away your badge and gun. You know what happens next. Yada, yada, yada, you solve the crime anyway, get a big pat on the back, etc.

Just so you know, that's not a flight sim, it's a first person shooter game called Battlefield 2; it lets you use a bunch of different vehicles, from jeeps to tanks to aircraft; so while what he's doing is impressive, it's obviously not supposed to be anywhere near realistic

I am new to this forum and would like to say that I have enjoyed reading this topic.
I guess that I am one of the lucky ones that knew Scott. Wewere best mates when we were kids at school.He had a keen interest in aircraft then.
I renewed my aquaintance with his brother Dean about 18-19 years ago when I was flying radio controlled models and was invited to his workshop. He had told me about the Opal,Scotts acheivements with it and of his tragic demise. The remains of the Opal were stacked neatly in a corner of the shed. There was some talk of it being reconstructed and displayed as a tribute to both Scott and his achievements.
It is hard to believe that it is now 20 years since he left us.

Thanks for posting, George.

From your acquaintance with Scott's family, coupled with the talk of reconstruction, do you think the family would reveal at least some basic information about the Opel? Further photographs, drawings, or even airfoil profile would be most interesting.
