Tallest Bridge of the World

Worlds largest Plane

There was a little excitement 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.

Some of the specs are: Wingspan.... ........290 Ft. Height...... . .89.4 Ft. Length...... ........276 Ft Number of wheels..24 Max T.O. Weight.....1, 322,750 lbs. (Over 660 Tons.) Max payload...551, 150 lbs. (Over 275 Tons) Engines..... .....six Lotarev D-18T turbofans Max speed....... .530 MPH Cruise speed...495 MPH Range....... ........8, 310 Miles Only one aircraft built and it's not for sale.
