If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.
Slava Ukraini!

Is it me or does it have some serious dihedral? Wings flex a lot?
Big deals, rocks can fly too, as many an opponent found out in childhood "wars". The question is how *long* it can stay flying ;).
I figure it'll be at least another three years before this bird gets flown by an actual airline.

I believe the spars of the wings are carbon fiber and that they are designed to flex.
I suppose, given the damage to their manufacturing capability the Boeing management did to themselves, I should be amazed this thing ever flew.
Cujo, that's what ol' Adolph was so upset about.
And isn't it beautiful? For the first time in quite a while I miss living 5 minutes from Paine Field.
