OT: Retired Monster

Amazing pictures, thanks for sharing!

That would be a nice addition for the Sea Shepherds fleet :) (just dreaming...)

Cheers,

Here is a nice History Channel documentary on the Sea Monster. Quite a facinating aircraft. I think one reason why the one in the photos has poorer skin condition compared to the birds at DM is that the Ekranoplane appears to be stored near the water, probably a bit more moist, possibly salty air around it which is quite a bit more unfriendly to aircraft skin than the high dry air at DM.
