Hiding behind the front landing wheel? Haha xD

@323tiim Oh haha sure you could say that, I was actually on the head set talking to the engineers in the cockpit.

[doubleshot82]

does both engine rotate in the same direction? it seems like it

[TNSAOD]

@doubleshot82 They most definitaly do, there is no right and left engine they are both identical apart from a few things. may seem like they are rotating the wrong way around to start with but that is only because the wind is blowing the blades, until the engines light off.

[superskullmaster]

@TNSAOD What are you talking about? they are spinning the right way the entire time. At least it looks like that in the video. Look at the spinner, not the blades.

[TNSAOD]

@superskullmaster Sorry man your actually right there, I just took it for granted because the way the wind usually blows at the Air NZ hanger the engines usually spin the wrong way until the starter is engaged, I should have looked at the vid before commenting haha.

@magnus1270 Well the BEST engine sound ever is from the Lancaster bomber!

[superskullmaster]

@doubleshot82 Look at the spinner, not the blades. They are spinning the correct way the entire time.

@TNSAOD Oh, cool.. But ive got a question. How close can you go to the engine without getting sucked into it?
