I'm not an airline pilot just an ex mil rotary pilot, so this is a guess, but yes I would have thought they had a max throttle setting which would/could be above the throttle settings required for take off (although that is calculated as a V1 rotate speed in knots). as it will be about weight, centre of gravity, density altitude, length of runway, and any abatement orders in place for noise, plus other factors. Maybe someone here knows definitively?
In a helicopter, there is usually a figure plus of 100% power/collective that you can use for a certain time length, depending on type.
Thank you!
One more question, if the people on the sides were indeed able to hang after the initial thrust increase and not flat out lose their grip, how many seconds do you think they would be able to physically maintain their grip before their body would succumb to inertia?
Again I'm giving it my best guess, but going on passenger airplanes 737's A321 etc a typical V1 speed would be around 130 kts Indicated. So I guess as it's climbing at around that speed, perhaps quicker to get out of missile range with height, I would have thought with the angle of climb and airspeed and very little to hold onto, maybe 15 - 25 secs once airborne?
Certainly as it levels out at the top of the climb and height above 10,000 you have zero chance. Oxygen going, temperature dropping, sod that!
I can’t believe that there’s guys that would rather do something that terrifying and suicidal instead of staying behind to fight for their country…this whole thing makes no sense to me.
No problem. I guess if they have helped the Western forces out in anyway and other's find out, the death will be even worse? But I'm still not convinced by the video we saw of the taxying C17 was actually real, some thing seemed off, but it is hard to know for sure.
