Country: | Definitely a candidate for the butt-ugly airplanes thread! I can't see anyone saying that one looked good! Where the heck did the pilot sit? Or would any self respecting pilot even want to fly that abomination?

Country: | You know fellas - I don't have a clue where the pilot sat and how he saw over the nose! If you ask me, I rather fly the Spirit of St. Louis backwards, in a spin, during a Kansas tornado, with Gilmore the Lion on my lap!  | |

Country: | I have a feeling he might have sat in between the two lower engines, if anywhere. Its French though, it explains a lot I bet lanc thinks it looks amazing...

Country: | You know, I want to believe that the pilot sat between the two lower engines, but there doesn't seem to be a windshield. | |
