That A350 climbs better on one engine than any Aerosucre 727 on all three...

[@u2bear377]

Any Aerosucre 727 packs more cargo than that A350.

[@counterfit5]

​@@u2bear377impressive, since a 350-1000's payload capacity isn't too much lower than a 727's MTOW

[@gregedwards1087]

Aerosucre always loads the aircraft to capacity (MTOW) first and then they load the 5 tonnes of cocaine so they can say that the aircraft did not have any contraband on it when it does crash, "..........no, here is the load sheet, as you can see it is fully loaded with legit stuff, no cocaine here.....", meanwhile the burning cocaine is getting everyone in the area high.

[@toms5996]

Those tests where only one engine is used are always so cool. I remember back in the day MD-11 was advertised as a 'safe plane' since it could fly only with two engines🤣

the test on this video is done with both engines. You can clearly see the smoke coming from both upon take off.

[@toms5996]

@@mrkhoros Might be correct and looks that way. Facts are all over the place with these clips lol What is not fiction though, is that that DC-10 and MD-11 were advertised as 'safe' as they could fly with only two engines.

[@TheHobohobbit]

@@mrkhoros I imagine that they still keep the engine turned on but just leave it at idle in case they need the extra power. since this was just a test and not a real emergency, they also could have been using both engines at half the normal power to simulate one engine power, again in case of problems.

[@MegaEdge777]

That takeoff simulated a LOSS of engine at V1, reducing one engine's thrust near the last point of being able to abort takeoff. Started with TWO ENGINES and left ground with ONE full throttle.

[@geoffmesser5091]

Back when pilots could have guests in the cockpit I sat in the engineer’s seat of a 767 for takeoff on the short runway at Mascot (Sydney). The skipper (my wife’s cousin) pointed out marker beside the runway and the airspeed indicator and told me that the pilots breathe easier when the airspeed passes the magic point prior to that marker.

[@TheHobohobbit]

Most decent sized runways these days are more than big enough to handle a small plane like a 737 landing fast without needing to stress the brake too hard

[@FenrirKi]

If you have passed V1 you must take off with one engine. The airplane is designed to do it that way If necessary.

[@joshuahudson2170]

There was a case of a mandatory rejected takeoff after V1; airplane had suffered some kind of hydraulic failure and could not be controlled via aerodynamic surfaces. Thrust reversers were used and they overran into the runway lights. Could have been a lot worse.

[@FenrirKi]

@@joshuahudson2170 Yes if other systems are malfunctional and the plane is not flyable, otherwise it's better to take off and then landing again.

[@Themilkmanskid.]

The landing gear looks so heavy duty. Love it!

The sheer size alone makes it look heavy duty👀

It was funny recognizing Svalbard from the ProMods map expansion for Euro Truck Simulator 2. Not a perfect replica, but you can see it’s the same place. They did a good job there.

[@bertg.6056]

#1 was at flight idle for this test.

I presume the other engine was at or close to idle encase they needed it.

[@persique7765]

they'll never cut one engine just in case the other one isn't enough. One of them was in Idle

[@Tom-ok2rh]

That what I saw too. Plus why test a takeoff with one engine? Wouldn’t the flight be aborted if an engine failed at takeoff? I knew a plane can fly with one engine because it’s already in the air I never knew it could take off with only one.

[@HiddenWindshield]

@@Tom-ok2rh Once you're passed V1, there's not enough runway left to bring the plane to a safe stop. Hence, all commercial airplanes need to be able to continue the takeoff, even if one engine fails after V1, because that's safer than going off the end of the runway.

[@argosy440]

​@@Tom-ok2rhyou can't abort take off at V1. You have to carry on with the takeoff. That's why they performed this test

[@brucebaxter6923]

Does st Elmo’s fire flash like that or is is more a flicker that the camera can’t see

[@EllipticGeometry]

Should be pretty accurate. The flashes aren’t regular or tied to the frame rate. It also looks like a 360° shutter which is less susceptible to such effects.

[@brucebaxter6923]

@@EllipticGeometry Wellllllllll Typical shutter speed is half the frame rate so you start at missing half the images. I’m guessing this is a camaeraphone and thay run about 1/200 so it misses 90% of the images. So by inferences you would expect ten times the flashes. That’s at least a flicker of not a constant.

[@EllipticGeometry]

@@brucebaxter6923 You can tell by the motion blur that it’s going straight from one exposure to the next. Stop pulling numbers out of thin air. Devices like this use a large range, indeed going for 360 degrees in low light.
