    Four British terror suspects 'plotted to use little toy car to attack TA Base

    This is a Daily Mail story and so appended here

    Four British terror suspects 'plotted to use little toy car to attack Territorial Army base in Luton'

    A suspected terrorist plot to drive a toy car loaded with explosives under the gates of a Territorial Army base and blow it up has been smashed by police.

    Detectives believe the device was to have been detonated in Luton as part of a campaign of terror attacks in Britain.

    You can take a horse to water, but you can't make it drink. However, you can bl**dy well make it wish it had!

    Probably not likely since, if you scale down the linear dimensions by a factor of 10, you reduce the lifting surface area and payload by a factor of 100, and the volume by a factor of 1,000. I think most scale model aircraft would only be capable of carrying less than a pound. Any scale modellers care to comment?

    As the sail boat modellers say, scale don't sail.

    Carry a bit of a payload on a microlight and I wouldn't mind seeing what starstreak would do to one. Better than watching high diving. Unless your Jarrod. got your tickets yet?
    Haven't had an accident in years. See a lot in my rear view mirror though.

    It's very unlucky to be superstitious.
