Excitement at McCarran Airport Las Vegas.

A little excitement at McCarran Airport Las Vegas.

Looks to be like seven tires on each side and one can only


guess how many total tires.
How'd you like to do a tire rotation?
The world's largest aircraft (Russian Antonov 225) was
there delivering a very large Turkish built power
transformer for Nevada Power.
Check out the tires and the people walking around in
this picture.

Tornado Aircraft Creates Amazing
‘Cloud’ Effect
A Tornado fighter bomber pulls up, while moving at
high speed, causing a stall (a transient high-speed
stall).
The drop in air pressure around the wings causes the
moisture in the air to condense and, in effect, form
instant clouds.
Jet fighters breaking the sound barrier, particularly
when over water, often cause the same effect.
In the case of the Tornado, the condition is
enhanced by the swing wings automatically moving to
adjust for the stall condition.
