Engineering has it own beauty. Military engineering, like this specimen is a stellar example of it.

Oh man, the Sears catalog. I got 100 bucks, cold hard cash every birthday and the Sears catalog was like the holy grail. 364 days of options

My brother-in-law flies C-17s out of Anchorage. You'd be amazed how short of a runway those chonkers need to get airborne.

Yep. As big as you think it is, it's bigger. Had them fly in multiple times for pres visits. Tail higher than the concourse roof.

55 feet from ground to tail.

I'd rather have universal healthcare and free education.

Move to Europe.

The current private insurance system costs MORE than universal healthcare would. No reason the US can't have it, besides assholes in power..

Given the large number of humanitarian missions this aircraft performs, I'd put it on fence.

Why not both? Wouldn't that be something worth protecting?

Get a better political system or move, the second option is unfortunately impossible bc moving is also expensive, america is a wage slave>

The preferred name is actually: The Moose, although I like your version equally.

Only ever heard it called that when they were in the Middle East because it was their squadrons mascot

Stop fat shaming you monsters. Planes come in all shapes and sizes, and it is very hard to buy lingerie when you have a 7840 inch waist

It's really good at sticking to a diet. Low carb consumption is its thing.

We know they’re big planes, just surprised there’s one almost as big as your mom.

4 years ago | Likes 14 Dislikes 0

Well. Lets see. 7840 inches is 653(ish) feet. If thats the circumference (c) of the plane and c=2πr then the plane is about 207 feet wide.

Others should feel free to check my math.

4 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

You fool. You absolute fool! You rounded far too early, causing you to round your final answer down! 7840/(π*12)=207.9624589734099

Due to this astounding error, you were only 99.5371958101664% correct. Is that all you strive to be in this world? You disgust me.

That is a much sexier equation than what i used.
