World's Biggest Airplane

32 wheels! -- Cost's more than my house to rotate the tires! The World's Biggest Airplane!!! (glad I do not have to pay for it's fuel) Russian Antonov 225  Attached pics are of the Russian behemoth when it came into Medford, OR, to pick up two Sikorsky fire fighting helicopters to take overseas -- $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 it.
