now that i have a place to talk about it i have to say that. as the resident plane nerd. shusterman did a pretty good job talking about the planes in the graveyard.
but the one thing i can not believe is the fact that the fucking COMBOM is a WORLD WAR 2 BOMBER. SHUSTERMAN. DO YOU KNOW HOW FUCKING TINY THOSE INTERIORS ARE. SIR.???????
i simply can not suspend my disbelief enough to think that a shit ton of computer and radio equipment + a team of like ten kids would fit. into the nose. of a . world war 2 bomber. bro that's just not happening. not even in a b-29. i know those planes look massive but trust me most of the fuselage is for. well. the bombs.

hey shusterman. look at this. do you. did you. um. Think? this is a b-29. the biggest bomber in ww2. do you see that tiny cockpit? and the tiny bunks? there's no way bro.... there's just no way.... even if they stripped the entire thing it's just not built for that kind of shit.
like i get that the plane has to be a bomber bc comBOM but c'mon... it could've just been a cargo plane... an MD-11 or even a fucking converted 767.... this is the one thing that hurts me so bad and IT'S HAYDEN'S WHOLE DEAL TOO AND IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. GOD THE AUTISM. WHEN WORLDS COLLIDE
#no one will ever understand this but i think about it at least once a day and have an aneurism#like. see my issue is. the combom is never described as particularly cramped either#there could've been a possibility to play up the whole ww2 bomber concept by talking about how cramped and claustrophobic it was#that's just how those bombers ARE#and the glass nose too? cmon man there could've been some cool scenes with that#also some good fanfic possibilities.#like i dunno. if you're going to consistently bring up what era the plane is from at least make it actually consistent#there was so much POSSIBLITY to describe the combom as this place where you're sure to get a concussion#and you gotta go visit risa after working a shift in their bc your posture has gone to shit from being hunched over a computer#THERE'S LITERALLY A FUCKING TUNNEL YOU CRAWL THROUGH TONGO FROM THE COCKPIT TO THE BUNK ROOM#COME ONNNNNNN#well we all know how bad shusterman is at making things interesting but man. wasted opportunity#anyway i will stop being a FUCKING PLANE NERD#keeping this out of the main tag#cal has thoughts#graveyard
