Imagine yourself at the million kroner question in "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?". You have all cheats available, in this case the almighty Wikipedia which knows the exactly right answer. Will you use the cheat and win the million kr or don't use the holy Encyclopedia Wikipedia and possibly lose the million and having to settle down with the hundred thousand kroner prize, also known as the "almost made it and was too unintelligent to get the moula"-prize? The decision is yours. Just don't think that the elephant is smaller than the moon.

Okay okay, that hint might not have worked so well then. So here comes some more facts:

It is a twin-seat jet trainer, and the Luftwaffe doesn't operate it. Furthermore, it was designed in the early 70s.


Just don't think that the elephant is smaller than the moon.

The elephant is bigger than the moon depending on where you stand relative the moon.

Just search for "airplane" in Google or Bing or Yahoo or Ask or whatever search engine you use, and take the first picture of an aircraft you find. :D

That is premier Khrushchev's Tu-114, currently displayed at the Central Air Force museum at Monino airbase outside Moscow.

The shape and spacing of the visible propellers makes it clear that there is another set behind them.
