Μεγέθη που κόβουν την ανάσα.
Τα μεγαλύτερα αεροσκάφη που έχουν φτιαχτεί ποτέ αντιπροσωπεύουν τα θαύματα που μπορεί να κάνει η σύγχρονη μηχανική. Αυτά ποικίλουν από ειδικά τζετ που δημιουργούνται για να ρυμουλκούν τμήματα αεροσκαφών, μέχρι διώροφα επιβατικά αεροπλάνα που μπορούν να μεταφέρουν περισσότερους επιβάτες από ποτέ.
Αυτά είναι λοιπόν τα μεγαλύτερα αεροσκάφη του κόσμου.
