Dash 8 video /gay

[gearjockey]

I give it an A for photography and a D- for soundtrack. I may have missed the middle song but I fell asleep on final. What's the ref on these things anyway? Skillz, will you join my posse? Please?

About 100:bawling:

Dem crackaz got mad DASH SKILLZ, yo! Too bad propz are for boatz and jetz are for planez. Smoov

[Sig]

Allright, dangit, i'll say it:

I'd rather screw my way across the country than blow.

WHY DOES USAIRWAYS USE HHH instead of HXD??????

Sig's answer is most appropriate for you, but you certainly seem to be very passionate about this. Sig and JohnnyP can correct me, but I recall the Jepp header actually reading "HHH/KHXD." If that's not good enough for you, I'd guess that HHH is the IATA code whereas KHXD is the ICAO code. It's the same reason U and other airlines use LGW instead of EGKK.

Hey, thanks! To further confizzle the dude, why do we call it "SCE" when it is clearly "UNV"? I mean, seriously!! I might totally miss the only runway on a 75-some odd square mile island, like they (us) tend to do, but a complete miss of State College is imminent resulting in total loss of... something.

 

[Paris]

Good question.

Answer: Who gives a $hit.

I'm considering this for a signature now.:laugh:

Really too many good quotes on F.I.

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

[pitotstatic]

I always thought the center landing/taxi light looked like a zit.

 

[CaptainMark]

shut up moron

hey aunt rico...get a life!

I think it's the same deal, where it's SCE/KUNV, but I'm not sure.

As an aside, the reason I responded to the HHH message was that I remember prepping for SOE and trying to find "HHH" on the flight plan list they gave us. Sure, HXD was there, but how was I to know what airport that was?

About 100:bawling:

Built originally for Canadian utility airstrips, cuffed leading edge, long wing, 80% wing flap, roll spoilers, powered rudder, huge tyres and shock struts...

A dirty Dash-8 at 30,000 lbs will do 82-95 knots over the fence with Full Flaps and 1200 Prop Rpm.

Freedman's kid shot the video. He's from the Boston area. To bad he didn't video a Dash doing a BOS 33R landing.

We had those beloved DH8 my company, but sadly not anymore. I can always tell a former DH8 pilot....when they land its so smooth I damn near have an orgasm......YES ITS THAT GOOD!

 

[RJP]

pretty weak. The dash does look pimp in black though.

 

[Flyingdutchman]

real pilots fly props!

better still would be the ils 15R circle to 4L in bos, now thats an approach
or an abreviated expressway 31 in lga
chop and drop visual 35 in phl coming in from the north (cause the controlers there suck)
anacostia visual 22 dca


and how did bruce's kid shoot the video? i wasn't aware he flew at pdt/alg or flew at all for that matter

 

[acaTerry]

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.

I'll back you up just because you got that sweet GEORGIA flag!

Ummm, I don't know. I have mis-spoke. The yahoo site gives Andrew Freedman credit for the video upload. At the end, there are two individuals standing in front of a B-737 with a Happy Birthday message. One is Bruce. I am assuming the other is Andrew. It is entirely possible that BF did the video and that AF did the editing/production.

Yeah big iron man, and Jets are for kids.

 

[CaptainMark]

[C425Driver]

He should have used the theme from Top Gun in the soundtrack- then it would've been one bad a$$ video!

[B1900FO]
