Biggest Aircraft

Designed by World War I aviator Konstantin Kalinin with a wingspan greater than a B-52's and a much greater wing area, the K-7 was one of the biggest aircraft built before the jet age.

The K-7's very brief first flight showed up instability and serious vibration caused by the airframe resonating with the engine frequency.
