Great vid, really brings the hugeness of the thing to scale. You'd think it'd be a pain in the butt to do all the transporting EVERY time they build one.

Thanks for the vid, enjoyed it alot.

Nice find there 👍

I remember watching the TV series they showed on Discovery Wings (I think) and it was really interesting. They had a big problem with the landing as it would hit the side panels.

Amazing, Agus thank you very much, I don't know how I missed that before.
What surprised me, the painting wasn't fully automated. What was fascinating, seeing the inside levels before they put the fuselage together.

I was just cleaning out my garage to build one but now I see I need more room than that. Tongue Twist
