Snowmobiles can fly. Anything that goes farther than the Wright brothers at Kittyhawk is really flying

On December 17, 1903, Orville Wright piloted the first powered airplane 20 feet above a wind-swept beach in North Carolina. The flight lasted 12 seconds and covered 120 feet.

Three more flights were made that day with Orville's brother Wilbur piloting the record flight lasting 59 seconds over a distance of 852 feet

Cool old russian vehicles!

1913 Rus­sobalt Type-Kegresse



1939–1946. Total 33 840 units were pro­duced. This truck is pow­ered by gas gen­er­a­tor that used fire­wood (or coal) to pro­duce gas that pow­ers the engine. Because of this it has low power and speed, it is dif­fi­cult to ser­vice and not so easy to start up. But because the lack of gaso­line in some north regions this truck was indispensable.


Yag -12 all four front tires steer, 1932 to 1941

Pro­duced 1949–1953. This inter­est­ing car is kind of GAZ-M20 Bobeda based six seat mini­van


This is a 1956 4 wheel drive airplane towtruck, and can be switched to just front wheel drive. (only 13 made)
