    Is that a Lancaster?

    Yes. Powered by 4 Rolls Royce Merlin V-12s and carried the largest conventional bomb of WWII (22,000 lb Grand Slam).

    Good point, Rob.

    Also, I'm pretty sure that the torque is so weak, that if you were to get a ladder and climb up to the Boeing at idle and grab the cone with both hands, you would not be ripped from your perch and flung off against the fuselage.
