                        Does anybody know about the 747 in the background on the show Top Gear that has 1 inboard twin engine pod with an outboard fuel tank on each wing.It has been bugging me for awhile?

                        That would make a way cool, fairly easy conversion.

                        Yep, thought about doing it with a spare 747-400 kit. Still might do it one day.
