checck out this flight at fla jets amazing he saved it

Many people were anticipating the flight of Bob Levine's new Mibo A-10. With the intakes fans, the split ailerons, and even the pilot controls moving it is an incredible scale aircraft. Because of the winds on Thursday he decided to not fly it that day, but with better conditions on Friday he put it up in the afternoon. Very quickly into the flight things turned really bad. The plane started shedding parts and then developed very severe flutter in the wings. Bob slowed the plane down and the flutter seemed to stop. He turned back around and lined up on the runway when the flutter returned. All I can say is that Bob probably should head straight for Vegas and bet heavily, as he's a very VERY lucky man to have gotten this plane back on the ground in one piece.

Here's the video of his flight.
