Did the thing ever fly?
BTW, are your mugs still in use?
Blessings, Bro.
BTW,
What did you hear about the Needles UFO crash some time ago where the copters and sky crane were there within 17 minutes to cart it off toward area 51???

Nice model. Looks like something that Blohm und Voss would design. I have seem a number of wild German aircraft designs from the 1930s and 1940s (many of which made it no further than the concept phase), but this is a totally new critter to me.

That looks like something from that scifi movie Sky Captian and the World of Tomorrow.

Definitely some photoshop work done on the photos. The K-7 was large but not that large.

Yep, the last pic is a definite photoshop job. But the other pics are real.
David, you can reply to MilNet and direct them to this thread. FReepers have positively identified that big bird. Regards
