January 23 - Sam's Plane


Man must rise above the Earth — to the top of the atmosphere and beyond — for only thus will he fully understand the world in which he lives.

~ Socrates

Today is the day I'm heading back home after visiting with my mom for an early birthday celebration - so it's appropriate to schedule a plane for this day.

This design was one Sam Cremeens posted in the balloon forums fairly recently. I've tried to recreate it based on those images, once again in haste as I'm about to leave for my weekend trip in only a couple hours! Sam is great at creating functional designs, they are not so complex and thereby things you will build over and over again.

One of the things I really like about Sam's version was the artwork he used for the windows - I don't think I captured it very well, but my actual plane is leaving in just a couple hours and I need to go.
