Wow, the flying hotel and largest helicopter in
the world, Cool! The Hotelicopter is modeled on
the Soviet-made Mil V-12, of which there were
only two prototypes ever made. The Hotelicopter
Company purchased one of these prototypes from
the Mikhail Leontyevich Mil helicopter plant in
Panki-Tomilino, Russia in 2004 and have been
engineering the world's first flying hotel ever
since.
"The Hotelicopter features 18
luxuriously-appointed rooms for adrenaline
junkies seeking a truly unique and memorable
travel experience.
Each soundproofed room is equipped with a
queen-sized bed, fine linens, a mini-bar, coffee
machine, wireless internet access, and all the
luxurious appointments you'd expect from a
flying five star hotel. Room service is
available one hour after liftoff and prior to
landing." The Hotelicopter is due to fly maiden
journey this summer(June 26th) with an
undisclosed price...

Subject: Model-Jet Airplane
SR-71
This is one absolutely amazing
remote controlled [RC] model
airplane. Not only did they
build its jet engines, but
included a retractable landing
gear, and built it into a fully
scaled model of the SR-71
"Blackbird" that flies just like
the real McCoy. This SR-71 model
was built by an Engineer / RC
enthusiast in Germany , and is
certainly one awesome toy.

to watch and listen to it soar.
And the landing
is Amazing, too.

The
world's largest Aircraft
One of its
engines is larger than a pick-up
truck.
There was a little excitement
recently at McCarran Airport in
Las Vegas with the arrival of
the world's largest aircraft, a
Russian Antonov 225.
It was there to deliver a very
large power transformer for
Nevada Power, which had been
built in Turkey. (Apparently G.E.
or Westinghouse weren't capable,
or they lost the 'bid' to
Turkey.) Note the wingspan is
just about a football field
length. Aircraft specifications
are at the bottom.
