Nope. That is the wingspan of a Boeing 777-200ER.

Some rule somewhere about a 200ft wingspan, I assume?

My engineers intuition tells me that 200ft is the width of the doors of Boeings production line.

Nope. There are regulations covering the maximum wingspan to operate at certain airports, but the relevant limits are 52m (ICAO Code D) and 65m (ICAO Code E), which the 777-200ER falls in the middle of. >>22779 is probably close to the mark, although it is worth noting that other variants of the 777-series have a wingspan just shy of 65m.

Half an inch either side seems like an awfully tight margin. inb4 "Just ask your mum".

Is this the bit where we have to wait a month into the new series to find out the answer? Oh no, wait, that was Dallas.

Unless you've got telekinetic powers, that doesn't really change anything.

My Russian coworker:

"I am proud russia, my wife is pro ukraine. We do not talk politics. If we do, I beat her."

"If you ever start business, never import Poles, one comes then fucking thousands."

"My friend makes amphetamine and rents JCB to himself. Haha!"

"I like Britain but there's too many immigrants. If it were up to me I would kill at least half of them."

Some Russian I chatted with:

"Russians are not homophobic. Well ok they hate gays, but you gotta understand average Russian hates almost all the things in this world".

>"Russians are not homophobic. Well ok they hate gays, but you gotta understand average Russian hates almost all the things in this world".
I can verify this anecdotally. I've only ever met one Russian but he did hate absolutely everything. Even other Russians.

Relative to that part of the world, I met a nice Lithuanian chap once who hated everything but vodka and 8/10+ women. Listening to him talk about "the gays" in the pub loudly after a pint or two (I managed to make him try bitter, he wasn't a fan) was the most cringe worthy moment of my life to date. I felt like David Mitchell's character in Peep Show, unable to speak due to anxiety. Some of you may be wondering why I described him as nice, well, he went very far out of his way to help random people in the street, as long as they weren't gay of course.
