Flying Lawn Mower
http://www.pbase.com/tomsview/hobby_rc
You may saw radio control (R/C) airplane, or Helicopter flying.
You may saw a R/C car jump 10 feet high.
But I don't think you ever saw a Lawn Mower fly!
This kits really fly in Rosemed Park of LA.

Hey just last night I saw a piece on the Science Channel about the guys who build these. It was pretty cool -- they also had a doghouse one and a witch on a broom. Very cool stuff.

I've seen a flying saucer (not a UFO), but i've never seen a flying lawn mower. This picture alone justifies me joining Pbase.

Very funny.

There used to be a light plane(sort of) in Australia powered by a Victa lawnmower engine.

What a great picture - who ever thought of making a flying lawnmower?!
Si Kirk08-Jan-2005 01:20

Dawn08-Jan-2005 01:08
thought it was an airborne toy race car from the thumb.. lawnmower?.. okay, you'll have me doing double takes now!
Graham Whitehead08-Jan-2005 00:51
I have to say, I HAVE seen a lawnmower fly ! There is one that turns up to our local model aircraft rally every year. This is a great shot, because I know they fly quite quickly. Well done.
Guest 08-Jan-2005 00:49
I couldn't pass by a thumbnail of a flying lawnmower :) Quite a sight!
