here is the secret!

sorry richard, but i have to lay down the truth here...

backround: i was the one who carried about 50 or more bi-planes in a nearly empty suitcase all the way from germany via frankfurt airport directly to huston - and i was the one who had to always open up this case, because all the security-police-guys were so very much interrested in WHAT IT IS that looks so funny on their x-ray-screens... and i was the one who had to explain that i do have a invitation for a wedding and this will be the table-decoration... and i was the one who got strange looking faces from all the people standing around looking at me and the case and it's content and waving their heads from left to right and back again...

so the fact is clear: richard does have many many planes, and so i am shure he just simply takes one of those many planes and throws it out of the window and then takes the photo quickly with his digicam... that's it!  :yup:
he does not care about having 10 more or less planes in his collection, because he knows: all he needs is to just ask me to bring him 50 more an i will do it...

 :hmm:

so any more questions?
 ;)

Despite Playmoliver's exciting story, I can assure everyone that only ONE bi-plane was used for the "flying" photos! And, it is the SAME bi-plane in EVERY photo! ...  :P

So, regardless of Playmoliver's suggestion, Tim's "Chuck-o-Vision" theory is NOT how the photos were made ... :)

So far, Cap'n Henry seems to be the only member here at PF who may actually know how I made the little bi-plane "fly" pver the beach at Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

I am currently on St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands. So, everyone may soon see the little Playmobil bi-plane "flying" over the Caribbean ... :)

All the best,
Richard

And, here it is !!!

The little Playmobil bi-plane is towing the Playmofriends banner over the island of St. Thomas in the United States Virgin Islands.

In the background are cruise ships moored at the Havensight docks.

Just above the Playmofriends' banner is the Frenchman's Reef Marriott Hotel.

To the right is Hassel Island which is part of the Virgin Islands National Park.

The green and white bi-plane may soon be a familiar sight in the skies over St. Thomas ... ;)

All the best,
Richard

Most? What didn't they send you, Jim?

I'm sure that I speak for a lot of us here when I say that we're really looking forward to seeing your aeroplane creation ... :)

All the best,
