Aw, c'mon Cotty, I took my first ever flight in a DC3, and the thing
rattled and banged it's way across the Channel at a good 75 mph! Got us
there though, and in reasonable comfort.
Of course you jumped out of it just after

Very interesting. He got a bit carried away with the wide angle. I wanted
an exterior shot which showed the scale of the aircraft. Normal lens shot
of the whole plane with people near the engines or wheels.

Actually, that's a serious problem. You can't board that many
people through a single jetway, so the plane is designed for
multiple simultaneous board points. Even there, though, most
airports just can't handle that many people at a single gate.

Airports will have to be redesigned, the only way to unload one of those

Not that airlines or airports ever really show much concern about little

3,752 bicycles in an Airbus sounds like a song title.
It is designed for the current antiterrorist evironment. It will take 4
hours for the passengers to go through security anyway grin.

can not kill too many when they crash. Probably should be unpressurized,
