You think winter is your ally? You merely adopted the snow. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see green grass until I was already a man.
This is based on a real thing, believe it or not.

Die 15.600 kg schwere Schiffsschraube steht vor dem Maritimen Museum in Hamburg. Sie ist 6 x 6 Meter groß und wurde als Ersatzteil für einen Tanker gefertigt. Seit 2012 steht sie als Geschenk vor dem Museum ist ein wirklicher Eyecatcher.

The propeller weighing 15,600 kg stands in front of the Maritime Museum in Hamburg. It measures 6 x 6 meters and was manufactured as a spare part for a tanker. It has been standing in front of the museum as a gift since 2012 and is a real eye-catcher.
This is a close-up HDR photo of a ship propeller that is a 'public sculpture' on Granville Island in Vancouver. The framing of the light and shadow patterning creates a nicely balanced abstract composition.

I used a slow shutter speed to get a full 'prop circle' from the four-bladed propeller.
Billed as 'An economical 3 seat touring aeroplane', presumably for the extremely wealthy, it was not wildly successful as only 3 were built. This one survives, though.
Aircraft Transport and Travel Ltd., whose name is on the side of the plane, was the first airline to offer a regular daily international flight. It was between London and Paris, starting in 1919. The cost was £21 - equivalent to £750 today. Flight time was 2.5 hours, double today's flight time, but you didn't need to be at the airport 2 hours before departure. There was no in-flight entertainment, but you did get a hot water bottle for warmth, and you were guaranteed a window seat.
