I would like to put my mother in law's head in that engine.

Nice plane & vid

It's actually because cell phone cameras record each frame itself slowly - pixel-by-pixel from left to right and top to bottom. Because the propellers are spinning much faster than the camera is recording, they appear bent.

Just look up 'rolling shutter'... Idiots.

[NickelbackFanatic1]

the propellers probably aren't bent but the pitch of the propellers is probably giving it that look.

[Mazotheman]

WOW! The plane is going so fast that the propellers are bending. Cool!!

[dpaanlka]

@Engineer9736 No, what you're describing is the stroboscopic effect. This is different, particular to cell-phones and other cheap cameras. As the sensor records pixel-by-pixel, the scanning "enters" the blade and starts sweeping across it. For each next pixel, the blade itself has moved, so it appears stretched and warped because the "end" of the blade is continuously moving, like a moving target. Some videos show blades completely detaching from the engine. It's not because of the window.

@dpaanlka Not true, the propeller in this video is on places where it'd never be in real. The effect your describe will make the propeller look standing still or rotate slower than it really is, or even rotating backwards. I bet that the bend-effect is just caused by the window which works like a strange lens. I've seen it on more airplane videos.

@kevini15 Because they're not the unique planes in the world.

[kevini15]

why russia still uses that plane and not boeing and airbus?

[sebjuanthefirst]
