Fantastic...

It's only when you see the fuselage sections on a barge and some of the wing sections on transporters that you fully realise how big these things are.

Anybody who has done an project management or configuration control must be in awe of the complexity of projects like these.

Now all they need to do is time lapse the flight times to San Fransisco or Singapore eh?
