Amazing! Thanks George, I flew close to 2000 hours
in one (well, a bit larger of course) of those during the Cold War, Cuban
Missile Crisis, 24 hour airborne alert, hole in the ground alert, etc. A
grand old airplane.

It has 8 "real turbines" at about $1500
each! It took more than 2 years to
build.
It has a wing span of
about 22 feet. It takes multiple pilots as there are so
many
things to control. It cost $20,000 to build. Unbelievable that
someone would
make
this. It was $12,000 just for the engines.
