Interesting noseleg with the 4 wheels in line.  Anyone know why they did it that way instead of a 2x2 formation?

Nice video of a Mars doing a flight test.

Interestingly, single tail instead of twin tails like the one shown above.

Impressive beast on the water!

So... Is a pilot who touches down successfully called a "Mars Lander"?

Probably has to get 10,000 people through it to break even.

Tight cornering wouldn't be too easy with that massive front overhang.  

I probably would have dispensed with that separate chromed chassis and incorporated it into the lower part of the fuse, with front wheels out with their own mudguards and the back wheels in the wing stubs.

I recon Marty could use a few of those to complete his Zenith build, but not all of them, or it would never leave the ground.

Got everything apart from a compass and intercom thanks Planey!

Imagine finding the short in that lot. 

Not as small as the undercarriage on the biplane behind him.

i'm guessing that the lanes between them are wide enough to taxi, just look narrow from the angle.

Jeez, when I saw the thumbnail of this I thought you were inverted!!  (Reflection of the sky and trees)

Lovely. Wonder what the open hatch on the upper fuselage, port side of the fin, is for.

Now this is one where I say... WHO THE HELL took the photo?? And how? I've sat in the back of passenger jets and never seen one with a rear facing window!

"This is going to cost a bit."

Judging by the fence post in the foreground I reckon it was someone standing on a hill...
