During it's heyday, the Pelagornis was the largest plane ever to be built, succeeded only 2 years later by the Hughes H-4 Hercules and even later modern marvels. As production delays held it back too late to make any impact in the efforts of WWII (originally as an ultra-heavy bomber), Few were ever built, mostly as luxurious cruise-ship-like super-liners dominating the Atlantic route with both speed and aristocracy. The iconic sound from its 10 radial engines gave onlookers a sense of pure awe. Today, even fewer flying examples remain, providing nostalgia-seeking old-timers and adventurous youth alike with a unique vintage experience of "The Flying Cruise-ship of 45'."
