氣質姐與可愛可

　　The bigger they are, the harder they fall. However, this is not the case with some of the biggest structures in the world today. This month, National Geographic Channel takes you into the world of giant airplanes and architectural1 domes2. In "Big Bigger Biggest 2: Aircraft," NGC goes over the development of six revolutionary3 airplanes. Then, NGC explains how they all influenced the Antonov 124, the world's largest cargo4 plane.

　　The Antonov 124 is bigger than big. It is as tall as a seven-story5 building, and its wingspan6 is long enough to park eight buses end to end with room to spare. What's more, it has enough cargo space for 50 family-sized cars, which is nothing in comparison to what it has already carried. These planes have transported tanks, trains, other aircrafts, and even an elephant from Moscow to Taiwan. However, the Antonov 124 could not have done this without the major technological developments that have allowed engineers7 to build bigger and better cargo planes. So book a flight with NGC's "Big Bigger Biggest 2: Aircraft" and fly with the big boys.

　　物品愈大，跌得愈重。但對於現今世界裡一些最大的建築物來說，情形卻並非如此。本月份，國家地理頻道將帶您進入巨大飛機和圓頂建築的世界裡。在《超大建築狂想曲２：巨無霸運輸機》的節目中，國家地理頻道將一探六架革命性飛機的發展史。接著國家地理頻道將解釋這些飛機如何影響了世上最大貨機——Antonov 124的建造。

　　用大來形容Antonov 124還略顯不足。它和一棟七層樓的建築等高，其翼幅的寬度停入八輛頭尾相接的巴士都還綽綽有餘。此外，它有足夠的貨運空間來容納五十台家庭房車，但這跟它所載運過的貨物相比之下根本就不算什麼。這種貨機曾運送過坦克車、火車和其它飛機，甚至還從莫斯科將大象運載來台灣。然而要是沒有重大的科技發展使工程師得以建造出更大更優的貨機，Antonov 124也不會有現在這樣的成就。所以趕快訂好機位，隨著國家地理頻道的《超大建築狂想曲２：巨無霸運輸機》一同和這些空中悍將遨遊天際吧。
