<div>I love this plane. Jeanene, their fule tank is a rubber type substance. They only put enough fuel into it to get it into the air, as it leaks like no tomorrow till it gets in the air and the tank stretches out and seals perfectly. The plane is actually quite old and I'm not sure it ever saw much duty (for as advanced as it is). Amazing that much hasn't come near to replacing it. But then maybe we don't need it replaced.</div>
<div>I have been facinated by it from a very young age. Wish I could see one in real life.<br> </div>
