The most expensive plane in history

If you consider yourself a self-confessed aviation enthusiast, then welcome to the club! Planes, helicopters, rockets, aircraft ... the name, as we know it. Most likely you have already gone to numerous aircraft exhibits as well as international air shows and has always been your dream of owning at least a fascinating aircraft. Now buy any aircraft is not a joke. Owning one is a luxury that you need to save, not unless it's a baby "mil million dollars. "But if you think you've saved enough, here are the Top 10 of the most expensive, not to mention extravagant aircraft that might interest you. 1. <b> <Stealth B2 Bomber / b Tecnología> Advanced - Northrop Grumman for "Cost Spirit 'Bombers somewhere between $ 737 million and $ 2.2 million, with a fresh $ 1.3 billion per plane, the most commonly cited figure. The B-2 is a low-observable, strategic, long-range bomber Heavy able to penetrate sophisticated air defense shields and dense. It is capable of all missions of attack on the altitude of 50,000 feet, with a range of over 6,000 nm unrefuelled and more than 10 000 nm with a refueling, which has the ability to fly anywhere in the world in a matter of hours. It has seen service against air defenses powerful Serbia, the Taliban, and Iraq. 2. Airbus <b> <A380 / b>-which seeks to exploit economies of scale by transporting more other levels of people more or less the same cost in fuel, which costs $ 300 million. While most of the fuselage is aluminum, composites represent more than 20% of the fuselage of the A380. Carbon fiber reinforced plastic, glass fiber reinforced plastic and quartz fiber reinforced plastics are widely used in the wings, fuselage sections (such as landing gear and rear end of fuselage), tail surfaces, and doors. From 2012, Airbus offered as an option improved maximum takeoff weight, thus providing a better load capacity / performance range. 3. <b> also known as H4 Hercules "Spruce Goose" </ B> - Created by the billionaire industrialist Howard Hughes, the world's largest flying boat was made of birch not spruce. With an estimated cost of $ 25 million in 1940 prices was the largest seaplane ever built with the most extensive scale. It was built after a request from U.S. government in 1942 to a charge and troop transport that would not be susceptible to Axis submarines and do not use critical materials in times of war by replacing the metal wood in its construction. 4. VH-71 Kestrel <b> </ b> - The high tech replacement for the big presidential green 'Marine One' often seen off White House South Lawn, the kestrel $ 241,000,000 was dismissed by Obama when he discovered he was running 50% over budget, but was overruled. The total acquisition cost of the VH-71 presidential helicopter replacement program is expected to increase to $ 6,500,000,000 to $ 11,200,000,000. 5. <b> F22 Raptor </ b> - It was designed primarily as an air superiority fighter, but has additional capabilities that include attack, electronic and the role of signals intelligence. Invisible to radar in stealth mode, you can shoot down cruise missiles and cover huge distances at supersonic speeds. The F-22 is highly maneuverable, at both subsonic and supersonic speeds. It is extremely resistant to the exit, allowing it to remain under control in extreme pilot inputs. . But just seven of them were to cost $ 1,670,000,000. 6. P-8A Poseidon <b> </ b> - its $ 290 million ready for this war long-range anti-submarine warfare anti-surface and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance aircraft. 7. <b> V-22 Osprey </ b> - Part-plane, part helicopter, of the $ 118-million Bell-Boeing tilt rotor takes off vertically, but can fly farther and faster than a helicopter. It is designed to combine the functionality of a conventional helicopter with the long-range cruise speed, high-performance of a turboprop aircraft. 8. <b> Gulfstream G550 </ b> - Nearly $ 60 million, this is a plane with a strong international presence. Developed by the largest turbofan engines Rolls-Royce BR710, the G550 has a range of 6,750 nm at Mach 0.80 and a capacity for high-speed cruise of Mach 0.87. All this clearly appeals to their owners many celebrities including Phillip Green, Greg Norman and Rush Limbaugh. The owners of the slightly less expensive G5 includes Apple, Steve software mogul Larry Ellison and Jim Carrey Hollywood. 9. <b> Citation X </ b> - cruising speed of Mach 0.92, or 607 mph means not only the fastest in the history of business jet, but now, the fastest money can civil reactor buy. An important part of the effort of the entire design process was directed towards reducing the total resistance of the Citation X. The resulting design includes an area governed by the fuselage for efficient transonic flight, and the much mentioned supercritical swept wings. The Citation X wing is hung below the fuselage instead of passing through him. This allows the increased volume in the fuselage, a piece of a wing, and the simplification of the connections between the fuselage and wings. 10. <b> Pilatus PC-12 </ B> - Able to cover 2239 miles nautical between charges, and at 310 kilometers per hour, which is as expensive as a single-engine prop jobs receives 3.5 million dollars. Most PC 12 are used as corporate transport, but recent regulatory changes in Australia, Brazil, Canada, United States have cleared single engine turboprops such as the PC-12 for regional passenger transport in these countries. While awaiting the day when they finally get one of these magnificent but <caros href="www.pacificaircraft.com"> <a planes / a>, you can delight in collecting <a href="www.pacificaircraft.com"> <model scale airplane / a réplicas>!
