Not a finer flying jet was ever built. The mighty Swept Winged Douglas Racer Jet...Cables and pulleys...dial a flap...perf climb...-15 motors...an APU that could not generate enough air to blow out a birthday cake candle...ahhh yes...the Long Beach Sewer Tube.
If you could pave a runway that went completely around the world...I assure you that there is a flap/power setting for an MD-80 that will require you to use every inch of it...
