It can't be as it belongs to Lord Opti, who uses it to transport his harem and all their finery from palace to palace. :P ;D ;D ;D

Was certainly impressive when it came to Farnborough in my youth and popped an engine on take-off. ;D

"Oh, crap, down to 5 engines!"   ;D

Saw this, up close and personal, about 10 years ago .. very, very impressive piece of kit....  some aspects of it now appear "old-fashioned" but it was designed 30 years ago, and built 25 years ago.. and is still doing exactly what it was designed to do, carry outsize loads.. :)
