World's Biggest Airplane!!!
32 wheels! -- Cost's more than my house to rotate the tires! The World's Biggest Airplane, the Russian Antonov 225. These pics are of the Russian behemoth when it came into Medford,OR,USA to pick up two Sikorsky fire fighting helicopters to take overseas. The cost - Only $1,000,000 to transport them!
While they were loading the helicopters, the Russian pilots (two crews), went into town to buy cigarettes by the case and Levis jeans. It is amazing something this huge can stay in the air. The Wright brothers would never have dreamed about this!
