NOTE: When taking off, accelerate to 145 mph, then pull back and wait.
This is the updated version of my Hughes H4 Hercules from yesterday. I fixed the hanging wings and gave it a little boost without the turbofans.
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.

@AGKxCREW For some reason XML doesn't work with me.
@AGKxCREW I nudged T2000s' into eachother
How did you boost it without the inlets, is it XML or no?@DandruffCat
@DandruffCat Oh sorry! You are not now!
@BogdanX Thank you! Although I fixed those wings by placing them in sections, instead of attaching it directly to the wing.
@farke I am poor?
Nice! You are poor.
