One of the RC sites claim that the planes that size run in the 75K range.

The people who spend that kind of money on a hobby can obviously afford to spend it. It's no different that the high rollers rooms in Vegas where equal amounts of cash take a nosedive into the ground. At least with the plane you had the pleasure of flying it and you can look at all the busted up pieces and dream up the next big thing.

Fortunately for me, I don't have to make those kind of big dollar choices. Every time one of my HO scale race cars vaults over the wall and heads to the floor I cringe about how much it's going to cost me to fix whatever breaks. Doh!
