New pictures of the beast.

Impressive! This would make a great scale project for Michael or Rob's next jumbo plane!  There's a micro version in one of the photos.  :D

i actually got to go into one.  They had it at the London Airshow (when there was one).  The real reason it was there was to pickup not 1 but 2 diesel electric locomotives.

There has been a long standing argument what is bigger the C 5B Galaxy or it.
