Hallo, I'd like to share my latest build, a Cranky-inspired (thanks, Doc) flying VW Beetle.

I've used a Hasegawa kit with various parts from the parts box, wires, hoses etc. Decals are Eduard and Airfix. It was a fun build and a source of a great enjoyment for me.

Original inspiration came from the pictures of Alejandro Burdisio:

That looks like a heck of a lot of fun. Well done.

The Doc used to be a fixture around here but reasons unknown (to me anyway), he's stopped posting a couple years ago. Too bad, I always enjoyed his posts.

Thank you, Rob. The Doc shares his work via YouTube nowadays.

I really like the style of these , but I think start thinking about everyday use , how do they land with all that hanging underneath and if the don't , how did they get the luggage on top of the car ? And how do they unload it ? It looks similar to steampunk , but further out there .
