Can you imagine how long that nose would if there was a turboprop version?
jacksmachiningreveng@reddit (OP)
The engine would arrive at its destination 30 minutes before the passengers

Only the center engine travels first class

Something tells me the center of mass ended up being a little too far back than the initial planned design on this thing. There’s no way it was designed with that much nose cone.

Nice, an aircraft I’ve legit never hear of!
I like how by just looking at the thing you can guess that it’s French and not Italian

Seriously, make the outer nacelles longer and the nose shorter ffs, it's an airplane, not a baguette.
