Zeppelin-Staaken R.VI Riesenflugzeug Strategic W
My latest build based on the Zeppelin-Staaken R.VI from the First World War. It was the largest aircraft to be produced in any quantity during World War I with a massive wingspan of 42 metres, only 1 metre shorter than the B-29 of the Second World War. It had four engines in a push-pull configuration with a 10 men crew consisting of one commander, two pilots, two copilots, two radio operators, a fuel attendant and two mechanics in the engine nacelles.
