AN-225 Mriya

The Soviet era produced many wonderful aviation projects (and some horrors too) but the AN-225 is one of the unique aircraft that now destroyed will probably never be seen again, only 2 airframes were built and is the largest aircraft ever built. 640 tonnes takeoff weight with nearly half that fuel, pretty epic stuff, now nothing but a smoldering mess of good quality aluminium

Pants.

I just bought a new pair of pants, and they fit like a cheaply made castle.

No ballroom.

Must have been some cost saving exercises going on in 1820 when this was built, it is kinda small.
