At least no music from "Top Gun"

WTF were they doing cutting an engine? Noone ever let me try that. (EDIT: Yes, I figured it out. See below.)

And nice footage of HHH...the one place I miss flying to.

That whole thing is gay...looks like a big cessna...props are for boats anyway...

Could be they synched the engine so it stood still on camera(synching engine speed to the frame rate of the camera. The cockpit shot shows both thrust levers are about 3/4 of the way forward. From the camera angle I couldn't tell if prop was completely feathered or not(didn't really appear like it).

Dam...You're right. The gauges confirm it. Oh well; that's the first mistake I've made all day.

What never seems to amaze me is that people still (even after knowing this is a gay video) keep posting them on here. If they are so gay, then quit posting them.

It wasn't that bad.....less pictures mixed in maybe

and I thought the ATR was a pile of crap. Is anyone proud to fly these things?

...

Mr. Kooper, im going to go out on a limb here and say youve never had the pleasure to fly a dash. Maybe im wrong? I guess i just get tired of seeing ramps littered with regional jets. Come on people, the dash is a good lookin, good flying airplane. Someone back me up here.

Sincerely,

A proud dash guy.
