An old cargo transport aircraft, the moss, staining, and streaks of dirt down its hull made some very interesting patterns. \n\nThe aircraft obviously had some military usage in its history, whether it carried troops, supplies, vehicles, or a combination of everything I don't know. The proboscis on the nose of the aircraft is for refuelling midflight, so it could fly extreme distances so long as tanker aircraft were available to refuel from.\n\nIt is a monolithic piece of engineering, and only standing on the floor under its wingspan do you get a real impression of how big these cargo planes now are, they're a feat of design and engineering, even when obsolete and left abandoned outdoors.
