The Hughes H-4 Hercules (registration NX37602) was a prototype heavy transport aircraft designed and built by the Hughes Aircraft company. The aircraft made its only flight on November 2, 1947. Built from wood because of wartime raw material restrictions on the use of aluminum, it was nicknamed the “Spruce Goose” by its critics. The Hercules is the largest flying boat ever built, and has the largest wingspan and height of any aircraft in history. It survives in good condition at the Evergreen Aviation Museum in McMinnville, Oregon, USA.

Too bad his toenails were longer than his dick.
He was a genius
i went there last year. the rest of the museum resides under the spruce goose. that is an immense airplane. it’s a great museum if you get the chance.
Imagine how many trees were chopped down to build this ridiculous failure. …A whole forest’s worth.
