Hughes should have realized the real potential of that aircraft, and marketed it as such.

Every port city could have its own landing strip, on the upper wings of the Spruce Goose.

Point two: If Howard had teamed up with Bucky Fuller, they could have made an even more swollen and bulbous aircraft, that wouldn’t have to come down at all!
