@BlackTwister999 I know, eh -- with those engines, there are quite a few things you gotta do to start them -- you don't just turn the key like in a car :-)))

@keyboard1018 Well, It would be a special edition of a 747. I would call it a Boeing 747 Hexa. :-)

[keyboard1018]

@raulox71 but it wouldnt be a called a 747...

[raulox71]

I want to see a 747 with 6 engines like the Antonov 225.
