Big is beautiful, at least in the air transport business. What better way to prove it than McDonnell Douglas's giant arches on its C-17 Team stand (H4/F2).
Straddling the stand is a life-size comparison of the airdrop openings of the company's C-17 transporter with the openings for the C-5, C-130 and C-141.
Needless to say the C-17 opening is wider and taller than its ‘arch'-rivals.
