Star Wars X-Wing model - will really fly!

21' X-Wing model

Holy @(*&#$. Just when you think Sci-Fi fans, particularly of universes like Star Wars, had just about gone all out with their crazy fan-ness, someone goes and does something like this: build a 21-foot X-Wing fighter that they plan to launch next week. It has real moving wings and solid-fuel rocket engines.

Ok, so no one is going to be in it, and it’s not going to ‘land’, but be let down gently with 3 parachutes.
