0 comments The world’s largest plane is back the sky. The record-setting behemoth has six engines. And it boasts a wingspan totaling 385 feet. You can play an entire football game on it. With room for fans. It’s so big it resides inside a specially constructed hanger, because it couldn’t fit anywhere else. Everything about this modern marvel of engineering and what it might do one day is impressive. Except for the the video of its flight from the Mojave Air and Space Port. Because without perspective it’s hard to appreciate just how amazing it really is. The Roc, built by Scaled Composites for the aerospace company Stratolaunch Systems, gets its name from a “huge, mythical bird best known for its ability to pick up and feed on baby elephants.” It flew for the first time in 2019. The gigantic aircraft was originally going to help launch spacecraft and satellites by giving rockets a mid-flight boost. Those plans hit a halt following the death of Stratolaunch System’s Paul Allen. The company ceased operations until new owners purchased it.
