AN225, a one of a kind, six engine monster.

Jay, you could put your Pathfinder (full fuel, four 200lb people and
baggage), AND the Mighty Grape, AND your motel inside and bring the lot to
OSH where you could probably get a lot more for your aviation suites.

Yeah, I saw that monster a few years ago -- I think at OSH?

It was parked nose-to-nose with our own C-5 Galaxy -- quite a sight!

I must have missed OSH that year. I would really like to see the AN225 and
have always liked the *biggest* anything. Anyway, you might show this:
