Sorry that he died, but I gotta say that took guts. I've joked along with another person about the idea of creating a bunch of 1/24 or 1/32 scale navy fighters on a 1/24 or 1/32 scale USS Enterprise (CVN-65) and we both laughed and laughed at the idea of having a 35-50 foot model ship with all those planes on it, but this guy actually built to a much larger scale and actually succeeded in doing what we joked about.
