Chris, aka Demondriver of RC Groups, sent us the above picture. He tells us that he built the great looking Airbus A300 for a customer. It is 84" long, has a wingspan of 72", is made from foam, and is powered by 90 mm fans. The thrust produced by the engines is about double the weight of the rc airplane. All up weight is around 7 1/2 lbs.
