  • I go to houston from calgary this month can't wait

  • I'm flying with Continental to Huston from Calgary this Saturday. Do they have the individual entertainment screens on the back of the seats? What's the flight time?

  • @CO738ify I assume you mean from fuel burn? If so, no it wouldn't because we can burn from the center fuel tank, or even crossfeed for fuel.

  • Great video! Wonderful light conditions and sound quality is also awesome. Btw I have never seen this procedure of starting the engine before, it´s not very common in Europe...Good way to save fuel.

  • @FlightMaster96 This is a more common practice than you might think. Airliners can taxi on one engine and do so frequently after landing during the taxit in to the gate, and during the taxi out to the runway for takeoff. There is one trade off when taxiing with one engine, you must use more thrust on the one engine, to move the airplane (5-10% more).

  • Nice!

  • They can taxi on one engine. Hell they can even fly on one engine. They just can't take off with one engine.

  • Saving fuel. I am sure they can taxi with one engine.

  • oh could be ^^ thats me btw :L

  • could it be the tug :) ?
