Trivia

• The aircraft has six turbofan engines, whereas the traditional vehicle has only four engines. The two extra engines were added on an additional tailplane (rear stabilizing wing) not standard to the traditional plane on either side of the body of the aircraft.
• The Bus was used heavily in the 90's, but was put out of service when the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier was completed, until Agent Coulson requested its reactivation and refurbishment into a mobile command center for his team.
• The Bus has VTOL capabilities, which can also be used to allow the vehicle to hover in midair or quickly slow down to change direction as well. The turbofan engines flip from a horizontal position to a vertical one when the VTOL/hover function is in use.
• The Bus has two air-to-air missile launcher pods hidden in the larger forward wing.
• Unlike the standard aircraft, the Bus has 3 levels, rather than 1 or 2.
• The Bus has a large S.H.I.E.L.D. symbol painted on top of it.
• Another feature of the bus not present in the standard aircraft is the large skylight, which is located over Coulson's office.
• The codename "6-1-6" is a reference to the comics universe 616.
• The Interrogation room on the bus is made entirely out of Vibranium.
• The Bus is later upgraded with cloaking technology.
