Aircraft that looks like ass has crashed
by David Pescovitz from on (#1RGFZ)
The Airlander 10 hybrid airplane-airship, the world's longest aircraft that resembles a massive ass, crashed on landing at Cardington Airfield in Bedfordshire, England. Video below. Fortunately, the crew was uninjured. It was the aircraft's second test flight.
"The flight went really well and the only issue was when it landed," said a spokesperson for Hybrid Air Vehicles, the company that developed the aircraft over the last decade, originally supported by a US Army contract.
Sir Mix-A-Lot had this to say about the accident: "I like big butts but this one can't fly..."
