that is sooo cool. i wish i can make something like that.

and do you think it'll take all the time (i.e. moving parts on boats and then on trucks) to build all the production models?

Woot... just like we used to do with our wooden, rubber band powered planes back in the day.

The most fascinating part to me was the absolute precision with which all the parts seemed to come together, even the way the fuselage slid through the narrow streets of that rural village on its way to the plant. Then again, if you have the lives of 550 passengers riding on your wings, there is no room for any error whatsoever.

Very nice. Not exactly 7 minutes, as it was heavily edited, but definitely cool.

H <--- still waiting for that monster Airbus with cabins, fold-down (completely) seats, a possible restaurant/food stand, etc., to go into production.
