It's an impressive bird. I'm looking forward to seeing it at OSH
someday...

What else can be said?


Not sure it can land there. I read that it's so heavy, only a few
airports in the US can take it.


Interesting. I read somewhere that it's actually rather "light on its feet"
because it has so many wheels...

Of course, that doesn't change the overall weight -- but it should allow it
to operate out of Wittman. (Heck, a C-5 Galaxy had no trouble -- nor did
that even bigger Soviet Antonov...)
