Howard Hughes H4 Hercules (Correct Wings)
Sorry I've been uploading this for a while. Don't think im doing this for downloads and points. I keep noticing the little, incorrect things. I believe this is the final version
This is an updated, updated version of my Howard Hughes H4 Hercules. I had made the wings wider, for as I thought they were too thin.
This is the all-time famous, largest wingspan in the world, only 1 mile flown, Howard Hughes H4 Hercules, or better known as the Spruce Goose. This late 1940 plane is actually built all from wood, giving the name Spruce Goose. It's intended use was for long-range cargo transportation, but that never happened. When it was completed, Howard Hughes, the designer, taxied it into the open, and unannouncingly, took off, and flew just 6 feet over the water for 1 mile, to prove it flew.
