We all love fighters, but what always gets ignored are the giant transports, the massive planes built to carry huge loads. I challenge you to build replicas of the biggest planes. Some suggestions I have are the Kalinin K-7 and the Lockheed CL-1201. I will judge planes based on looks, performance, and I'll give a bonus for special features like opening backs, noses, etc.

1st place gets 15 upvotes

2nd place gets 10 upvotes

3rd place gets 5 upvotes

All entrants will receive one upvote

3 plane limit, entrance ends on the 20th. Good luck!

    OK. No guarantee, many Enormous planes have already been posted. I've got some ideas that may be worthy of posting, for this. Got to build them, first.

    Yeah, but there is fantasy (Alien Prometheus) and Real C-130X- and C-5A, and AN-225, I've already built and posted all those. Want a new one? @Tribaldragon1

    @Stingray not necessarily fantasy, I just want to see the behemoths of the aviation world, since there are so few on the website.

    The Lockheed CL-1201 was conceptual. The C-5 Galaxy can carry and launch Abrams M1A1 tanks out of the front and back simultaneously. You asking for fantasy? OK, if so, Np! Big planes will take me few hours, maybe, I'li think about it.
