[Scan-DC] SAM 28000

[Thomas P. Clouse]

I should have done a little googling before sending the original email, but
man, it is a convincing replica - right down to which windows are blacked
out and painted over and the placement of the seal on the outside of the
aircraft. A few antennas aren't in the right place, on closer inspection.

I can't see how anyone would think this is a viable money-making venture,
esp. given that the real things will be put in a museum in a few years.
