I have an almost identical picture, and many others, one of the best places I e ever been, the Tucson air and space museum (although the 4000 excess military aircraft are on the airforce base next door)

Certainly sir, would you like our fully loaded ex-demonstrator?



Or would Sir prefer something that needs a little work?



And would you like a C-130 to take it home in?



But the fact is sir, frankly the F-4 is getting a bit long in the tooth, it's getting towards the end of the month and I've not made quota so I can do a really good deal on an F-16, we have a large and varied choice...

That vertical/flip ship thing is hilarious, what the hell is that for?

A Guppy. Built to transport big bits of aircraft and rockets around the place.

Airbus have something similar for moving wings between factories.

yes The 'Beluga', they fly over Wrexham regularly. The A380 wings are built in Broughton, these things are the transporters.


[Xzibit]Dude we heard you like planes, so we put some plane parts in your plane.[/Xzibit] hehe
The A380 wings were too big for the Beluga. They leave via road, to the canal barge, then onto a sea going transporter. I watched the infrastructure being built, then was there as the first set of wings left. We used to stop at Hawarden for fuel regularly. I've also got a photo of us flying over a Beluga as it was sat on the threshold awaiting clearance.
