A football field being 160 feet wide, side line -to-sideline, one would have to park it a bit crooked to keep the wings in bounds. On the ground that’s some ungainly, hard to handle hardware, but off the ground it kicks buttz. The parking lot uses a big chunk of real estate.
And it has a garage too, doesn’t it? Gotta keep bird poop and hail off of it!
I took the statement as a poorly phrased analysis and that what was meant is that the width of the craft is about the same as the length of a football field - 100 yards - 300 feet. ❓
