18th of January.
For the lovers of cute looking Bentley – this is the day in 1919 Bentley Motors Limited was founded. 1919 seems to be a quite busy year where lots of things were happening.
Then in 1997 Boerge Ousland of Norway became the first person to cross Antarctica alone and unaided. This guy is a polar explorer in true sense. In successive years of 2005 and 2006 he successfully completed his journey towards South Pole and North Pole.
And in 2005 Airbus A380 which is the world’s largest commercial jet was unveiled in France. This superjumbo can carry 525 to 853 people based on the types of classes it has. It has length of 73m and wingspan of nearly 80m which you think of as a football field; actually it is wider than that. And with a height of 24.1m it can easily reach up to six or seven floored buildings rooftop. A sure giant!
Jai Gurudev!
Love!
