Don't wake a Tiger until you've factored the teeth



That's one biggg bada*s model! How much is enough though? How big before just making a regular aeroplane?

It's actually quite small compared to the original...and real aircraft are 1000% more complex to construct to carry human passengers and pass all the associated testing. This one does look fantastic though.
