This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I didn't read the article, but I assume they have to customize all the controls so a horse hoof can still operate them. That alone would make the cockpit huge.

They were. Just Google huge horse cockpits

What article? Isn't this just an image post?
