batcho99 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Here's a pic of an aircraft in a situation that alot of you might not get to see?

Les Littleton Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Couldn,t resist cheating . I was pretty sure about the wild thing as i have just bought one second hand and i am confident that i dont have room to fit that engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batcho99 Posted November 1, 2009 Author Share Posted November 1, 2009 Yep an A318. We we're doing a re-configuration after all it's testing, I was involved in changing some flying controls and checking a few things out. It was changed into a coperate jet with 14 seats! Posh hey, plenty of leg room in there not your chicken class 27" pitch! It had been a test aircraft for airbus, they used it when they were testing the A380, using it to see what sort of turbulance you would get when flying behind one! As you could imagine it got shaken to pieces nearly! Then it was sold to some rich people who stripped it and it started life again as a big business jet!
