Want a pilot

[BARBERIK]

Is anyone in need of a WWII pilot. Hes made of resin and is approx 8inches.
If he fits your needs he yours.

[stephane.savard]

I'll take him if he fits in the Spitfire, I'm not sure whether 8" translates to 1/7th scale, but I can compare him to my current 1/7th scale pilot

[morse]

Wow WW11 how old is that guy :) . Larry .

[Eric Marchand]

Let's do the math, if he was 5' 10", that's 70 inches, scaled down to 1/7th, he should be 10 inches. But then again his legs are bent...How tall did you need to be to enroll back then ?

[BARBERIK]

He's 7 inches but sitting, head and torso 4 1/2 inches,arms 4 inches, legs 4 inches, parachute 1 7/8 inches square, head and helmut 1 1/2 inches. He's weighs about as much as a "C" battery.

[bob forest]

He is also bowl legged, so where is his horse?

[BARBERIK]

He's not bowl or bow legged .He's pigeon toed and drunk ok and hasen't had a shower in years .

[Eric Marchand]

I don't know if this guy will work for your Spitfire Stephane. From the skin tone, he's definitely Japanese !

I know ! You could pretend he's flying a captured aircraft !:wacky:

[BARBERIK]

He's Chinese no he's african no he's indian no he's philippino no he's mexican thats it he's a taliban or binladin look a like , come with optional turban ,AK47 grenade laucher and a cell phone with 2 IED's.
HE IS A AMERICAN OR BRITISH PILOT! He even has eye lids. He's got a nice detailed face.
I'm trying to just give him to a good home but at this rate give me 10 bucks for him.

[stephane.savard]

I think he'll be fine for the Spitfire, my current pilot's specs (taken from the manufactruers website) are:

Width: 2 3/4" (70mm) Heigth: 4 3/4 " (120mm) Length: 4 1/4" (108mm) Weight: 3.9 ounce (110 grams)

So your pilot is likely either smallish 1/7th or 1/8th scale, but since my current pilot won't fit in the cockpit, I'll go with your slightly smaller drunk.

I'll put him in in rehab for a few weeks, then send him to the infirmary for some patch up (that business with his limbs must be rather painful) and he should do fine. Actually, I'm quite sure he'll be rather happy to get away from those twirly birds of yours and find himself in an good 'ol Spitfire :D

Oh, and if rehab doesn't work out, it's alright, it'll give me an excuse to explain those landings I keep doing!

[stephane.savard]

10$ sounds good

[BARBERIK]

He's yours Shephane "free". width shoulder to shoulder is 2 3/4 inches.

[finnegan]

If he was flying a chopper it should be a "no-brainer" to pilot the Spitfire!:D
The Dark Side is slowly taking over!

Attention all hoverers (there is a verb for booooring)


Let's see when you all do loops, hammerheads and rolls...
