  • Am I the only one who finds this video and the comments are extremely hilarious?

  • @raykrislianggi Haha you're not the only one. The main impetus for my uploading it was the hilarity. You may have noticed I cut a few extra 154s in for more effect.

  • failure due to fatigue is the bigger concern ...see the Aloha B737 convertible

  • 154

  • 2:02 humm boiola!!!

  • @thedreamliner2012 Nothing. The limit load is already a conservative estimate of the maximum load in flight (which would probably be in level flight at high speed and with an upward gust of wind). This test is at 154% that load.

  • @dano94 154....

  • oh great now thats gonna be stuck in my head all day. 154 bang! 154 bang!

  • 154WTFBOOM154WTFBOOM154WTFBOOM­154WTFBOOM

  • @airplanes66 How true.

  • @thedreamliner2012 extreme turbulence ad sudden loss of lift hopefully nothing that should happen but htey test to extremes to ensure it cant so that wing break wont happen in flight as you would have stalled and crashed by then
