A 747 that will rain on your parade

Red rain that is! http://www.evergreenaviation.com/supertanker/index.htmlCan't wait for the PMDG 747 tanker version! :)

I bet it

[Guest Ricardo Sevarant]

I was kidding of course. I'd rather have a 747 bomber version anyway. Blowing stuff up would be a lot cooler than putting out fires! I guess we'll have to ask PMDG....

What... Lasers not enough for you? :-)

[Guest Ricardo Sevarant]

Oh yah - lasers! I forgot. Any way to rig the particle beam cannon thingy to the FS2004 TCAS? I'm thinking instead of issuing traffic advisories and warnings it could just zap nearby aircraft out of your way....

Where did that come from?Andrew

[Guest Ricardo Sevarant]

Very cool Dan! I want one! Give me one of those and point me to the nearest group of insurgents.Boeing actually did propose a 747 version configured as a cruise missle launching platform to the USAF. In this proposed version, the passenger cabin basically became a weapons bay with rotary missile launchers. Alas, the Air Force built B-1 bombers instead.
