Yeah, they are jets. There are several large planes like this on the net. Unfortunately the first one I ran across, a B-52, crashed last year.

The last one I saw was a C-17 that even opened the cargo door and parachuted a Humvee and two radio controlled soldiers to earth.

Google model jet engines, there's a number of them on the market and the bigger ones are serious turbines.

Here's the B-52 crash. http://www.gizmodo.com/archives/scal...irt-020838.php
