an old vid, but what is a routine test goes all wrong. A bit long, but has an interesting finale....

I like it - they go from 'Cool as f**k' to 's**t my pants' in a few minutes . I like the bit 'OK guys I'm leaving [f**k you I'm off]'

Average by Intention.

thought he stayed quite calm & friendly, even when nobody was answering. I'd expect him to start on a "where's the god damn friggni stairs, FFS"
pyrotechnic idiot deserves a severe beating or two as well

Does it really go wrong? Isn't that more or less what you expect from a rejected takeoff at max weight beyond V1?

They asked the fire crews not to intervene so that they had data on what would happen, then they got a bit twitchy when the flames appeared...

There are all sorts of similar videos out there of various tests that are done on planes (and frankly I'm glad that they are).

Now, on the other hand, the Etihad A340-600 power test where they forgot to put the brakes on was a serious c**kup.

and somewhere in the background a whole team of Frogs stood around shrugging their shoulders, whilst gobs were stuffed with lit Gauloises fags

I am aspiring to be just OK!
