I need to see this some day...

[Science Abuse]

Wher can we see passenger jets do this in the states?

 

Big = impressive:

 

I'd pay extra for this takeoff:

As long as it were on purpose.

[ODoyle]

That would be amazing,if you can find an airline that would do that im down.

Just the simple fact that there so large and yet they can still manuver like that.

Ever sen one? Stood under one? Just to stand under that much moving metal as it cruised by at 300mph would be impressive, they're huge. Its this inside.

Thats St. Maarten! I went there about 5 years back and YES! My brother and I held on to the fence across the street from the beach and you would WAVE LIKE A FLAG.

 

Then you realize that a jet engine is like a massive hairdryer and you get very hot very fast.

 

Honostly that was one of the coolest places I had ever gone. The planes landing above you on that beach is absolutely amazing.

I was just looking for this one. Freaking amazing. Just look at how much altitude he loses when he does this.

[Kevin R.]

That is intense life ambition to see a 747 turn.

That is intense life ambition to see 860,000lbs move.

 

 

Fixed.

Care to offer up the most "intense" thing you've ever done?

You can come watch me pick up my cock for a similar experience.

I've seen the A-380 when it came over Columbus, unfortunately they can't fly it out of Port Columbus, at least not with a paying load.

And the An-225 has been to Rickenbacker three times that I know of. The Ukranians buy all their VIP limos and armored limos from Superior in Reynoldsburg, and fly in the An-225 to pick them up. You just have NO IDEA just how immense that thing is.....

WOW......

Playing with your own cock = the the most intense thing you've ever done. Gotcha. :thumbup:

[Tractor]

A 757 with low fuel and no cargo/passengers has a very nice thrust/weight ratio. Not to mention the engine dia is larger than a regional 40 passenger jet cabin dia.

I can't tell you how many times I've watched almost all these videos. These two are also pretty good.

Not a passenger jet, but one of the coolest things I have watched in my life was a pair of fighter jets (dunno what kind) doing touch and go's and going vertical and playing around with each other in the sky in Springfield on the 4th of July about 5 years ago. I sat on my car at the little church at the end of the airfield and watched them for about 30 minutes. Totally cooler than an airshow.

[zeitgeist57]

Post on CR if an Antonov 225 is at Rickenbacker...I'd drive down just to look at it, let alone be around when it takes off...

I did the same thing out at Rickenbacker about 2 years ago. A single F-16 just kept doing them. He'd touch down, nail it, pull straight up and turn 90*. Then go back and do it all over again.

Not the 225, but this is Nick under an Antonov 124:

Absolutely, I will. But the last time it came in was back in 2005, and the only reason I even knew about it was that I was headed into work, and ended up in the middle of the convoy escorting the limos and SUVs down Alum Creek Drive. Lotsa HMMWVs with deuces mounted, a couple Franklin County Sheriff's cruisers, and one nervous me in my minivan wondering why I'm getting the ole hairy eyeball from all these people with uniforms on.
