Okay - how about a twin-engined B52 using two of GE's 115000 pound

Picture in your mind the "oh no" bird, known for his odd warbling sounding
much like "oh no, oh no" on each landing approach; with his 2 inch legs and

On this side of the pond it's called the Oomigoolie Bird.

Distantly related to the Keereye Bird, the Ooh-ah Bird and the fabled
Oozlum Bird.
