Model Airplane Enthusiast Plans "Bitchin'" 9/11 Reenactment
Left: Stillwell readying his "explosive" 9/11 tribute
(Toledo, OH)Carl Stillwell has been "addicted" to model airplanes since he was a young boy.
"Nothing I used to like better than dousing one of these puppies with gas, igniting it, and letting 'er fly," he said, navigating a 6' Telemaster Electro across a deserted field. "Maybe it's a little weird, but wrecking model planes has been one of my life's passions."

Stillwell intends to "max out" his detonative abilities on September 11, when he plans to demolish a scale model replica of the World Trade Center by crashing two radio-controlled planes into the buildings.
"To make sure they blow, I've packed both buildings with about 800 grams of blackpowder apiece," he said of the 7-foot plastic-and-metal structures. "Should be one hell of a show."
Stillwell has decided to keep attendance to a minimum for his WTC tribute.
"I've got a couple of neighbors coming over, but that's about it," he said, landing a model aircraft. "The city is still pissed at me over my "Wreck of the Old 97" demonstration that caught the garage on fire. I should have used HO scale instead of the Lionels, but hey - live and learn, am I right?"

I think you are sick! No respect for the families of the dead and very poor publicity for the rest of us modelers. LOW CLASS!
The creator of this hideous "experiment" is doubtless a soul-less idiot, a real piece of genetic garbage.
How much better is the Toledo group who publishes his cruel idiocy?

You need to eat do-do, die and burn in the eternal fires for even thinking something like this.
I simply cannot belive you are a modeler. Most have some standards of decency.
