    Nice videos


    Hey, speaking of 757's, how do you guys tell the difference between PW and RR engines on them. I can't tell the difference.

    look for the cone shape on the pratts on the back end the rolls royce looks more like someone just cut the taper offof a coke bottle and slapped it onto the back

    i use the sounds to distingush. sadly, i can even tell the difference between a DHC-8 and a SAAB-340, while standing deep inside my terminal. i'm know to pop my head up from my computer when a PW-powered 757 rolls off of 13/31 too.


    and i just realized, that 757 has wingelts!!! SWEET!!!
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Great videos. But find me one with the DC-10 or MD-11 doing that. Now that would be insane!
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.
