Nice shots. It looks a very elegant bridge. Nice wide spans too. ;)

it's a very impressive bridge, especially for me...the future construction engineer!  8) one remark...this isn't the longest bridge in the world, no, it's the highest bridge ever built. compared to the Eiffel Tower which is +300 meters high, this bridge is a few meters higher!  :o
Raw power...the J-58.

Cool... that bridge would make a nice add-on for MSFS. Maybe a little too high to make flying under it much of a challenge, though...
