Wing of 747

Dublin, Republic of Ireland

"I work for a company that develops and installs in-seat video entertainment systems for
airlines. We were in Dublin, Republic of Ireland, upgrading this South African Airways
747-400. You can see a variation of the South African flag on the winglet at the end of
this 100+ foot wing. (The winglet itself is 6 feet high.)

"Have you seen that Twilight Zone episode from the '60s where William Shatner sees a
creature on the wing of a plane in flight? That came to mind while I was out there."
--Russell

Thanks to Russell for phooning (and for the photo idea).
