By now you may have heard that Airbus’ A380, the world’s largest passenger jet had its maiden voyage from Singapore to London. The 471 passenger big boy is cleaner that a traditional jumbo jet, has more leg room than your traditional jet, and the airline attendants hand out bars of solid gold instead of salted peanuts. But, you know what else has more space? Three jets! UK artist Dominic Wilcox demonstrates that will a little ingenuity and some modeling glue, he too can be on the cutting edge of aeronautical engineering. It also totally beat our concept of having commercial airline passengers fly on Voltron’s back.

Looks cool, but Dr. John McMasters (dec) of the Boeing Company came up with something like this a while ago that could actually fly. It would lack the bars of gold though.
