interesting though that no american airlines have purchased any of these aircraft.
anyway, i think the plane is an amazing achievement. im still amazed to this day that a million of pounds of metal can fly.

L.A just spent 9 million to make a GATE to accomidate this beast, and from all the Airlines around the states filing for Chapter 9 and others going under I dont think we'll see this U-Boat anytime soon. But I agree with Thor06, it hold 25,000 more gallons than a regular plane"Yeah thats good, cause we all seen what jet fuel can do!! Here lets add more." And its 30 feet or more bigger in Length "Because we dont have enough problems with shit falling from the sky! Heres something bigger." Just looking at this thing makes me weary, but I'm the type that thinks if im not operating than I have no control.
