Got the same running gear as a Checker CAB. Plymouth Cranbrook in Australia.Post WW2. Six cyl Sidevalve. About as boring mechanically as could be conceived. Reliable enough. Not efficient. Nev

I think you missed the point, Nev. Cosmick got it. The old B&W TV show from the 50's  or 60's, "Car 54 - Where Are You?"

Back in the late 30's there were promises of large lifting body commercial airliners. The pictures showed them with a massive delta wing, fat enough for all the passengers to occupy the wing and walk around at will as if it was an oceanliner. Just think what happens to W&B when they all wander to the front to look at the view!

Like this. It belongs in 'silly pictures' because its not likely anyone would come up with a lightweight structure that would withstand pressurisation.

Not silly, but I didn't think it warranted a thread on its own.
