Short Sunderland at MOTAT in Auckland, NZ. Look at the thickness of the wingroot on that bastard - you could fit entire civilizations in there. It’s no wonder these things laughed in the face of enemy fighters.

Also, I just found out I’ve worked in the actual factory which built the Lancaster they have there, which is kinda cool

IIRC that was designed so that mechanics could walk out inside the wing to service an engine in flight
