2 Big 2 Fly


So, when Eddie and I were in England we saw what we thought was the Singapore double decker taking off.  Jane, usually the bastion of correct trivia, said it wasn't the right time.  However, she was, this once, incorrect.  Because two days later we saw it at the gate, and it was scheduled about when we saw it leave on Monday.

It is a really big ass plane.  I don't want to fly with 600 other people (all go through customs at the same time).  Those food loaders in the picture (one for each level of the plane) are the size of cargo containers.  And those ants next to the engine are people (for size perspective).

Not even Robert Reich sized people, normal sized people.
