Comet Meteor...

You can be a Comet, or you can be a Meteor, but can you be a Comet Meteor?

A Comet is a white ball with a white tail...

A meteor is a black ball with a red tail...

Any intentions of flying that model? I was thinking of buying one, seen them on Ebay from time to time. Wonder how well it flies.

It flies! Not only does it fly, I had to chase it. and it's bullet proof too! It glides in and three point lands. Now I know why you guys fly rubber. Big fun...
