With a post count of 173 in 6 days, we are getting very close to spam (such as the "Classics" thread). I haven't mentioned it in other threads but...

Colsie, you may be new, but people respect quality of posts, not quantity...

Just to clarify in my mind, are we talking about the vertical and horizontal diameter of the fuselage section?

How is the classics post spam.


Posts 2, 6, 7 & 10 are verging on it. I can't really see the point in writing post #1 as you did then 5 minutes later replying to it yourself with an extra sentence or two. As Mic says, the forum does have a modify button...

Verging....they are spam...

Anyways from my own curiousity, I assume he means the distance from the ground to the bottom of the fuselage because the plane does seem oddly tall.  Maybe if we could find a technical drawing with the height of the gear?  Or just a drawing with some sort of scale...

I'm not sure of the height but I believe that feature is because the Tu114 started life as a bomber, and the large nosewheel was to make more space for loading bombs...

It turned out to be a real pain at airports 'cos they had to have specialist steps made for them...

I'm sure the question will be clarified in due course...

However, I am now confused:

Cabin length, including flightdeck: 47.00 m (154 ft 2 in)
Max Width : 3.92 m (12 ft 10 in)
Max Height : 2.18 m (7 ft 2 in)
Total Volume : 465 cu m (16,420 cu ft)
Freight Holds (underfloor) : 70 cu m (16,420 cu ft)


The above reply was the answer to the same question posted by chornedsnorkack on Pprune on 14th August 2007!

Have a look at this:

http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1071214/L/

I am puzzled as to where this headroom comes from. Can you have anything that big in the belly hold of a 707 or 320? I mean, 392 cm cabin width would mean Tu-114 is just 40 cm wider than 707 and less than 20 cm wider than 320!

So yes, it is the fuselage height that I wonder about, from underbelly to roof. Preferrably an idea of how this is divided (underbelly to kitchen floor, headroom kitchen floor to kitchen ceiling, thickness of deck and deck beams from ceiling to floor... cabin height is quoted as 218 cm, then roof thickness from ceiling to rooftop... this sort of thing).
