meddesign Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 See if the list can guess what these guys are really doing. Quote
jetdriven Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 I wonder abouyt that thing. Namely, what happens when that thing flies off and hits another plane. or if the engine is certified to run with such an imbalance. Lycoming says anything that slows RPM to be a prop strike, such as snow, water or even grass.. Quote
meddesign Posted August 6, 2011 Author Report Posted August 6, 2011 The post was about the "Where is PropPastie?" video, however, there is a test video of the PropPastie departing the aircraft. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmbF_mr1GHMThe purchase page has all the legal disclaimers and no I would not want to be standing next to the prop when the PropPastie came off. It does not slow down the prop in any way, and the imbalance is insignificant. You will not be able to fly with it on, it will depart the aircraft. Quote
jetdriven Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 I saw that video too. What is it for? Quote
meddesign Posted August 6, 2011 Author Report Posted August 6, 2011 you are supposed to guess what they are doing, it is a true story, and it really has nothing to do with PropPastie, I filmed it and posted it for fun. Quote

sleepingsquirrel Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 My guess is schooling or flocking like fish or birds. Simply doing what the animal next to you is doing. Quote
meddesign Posted August 6, 2011 Author Report Posted August 6, 2011 Well that's a pretty broad, answer. I was looking for a more specific answer. I mean, yeah they are walking around, but that's not the answer. Quote
meddesign Posted August 6, 2011 Author Report Posted August 6, 2011 Rocky the flying squirrel lived in Frostbite Falls too. He was not a raccoon though. Quote
sleepingsquirrel Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 can you guess what these guys are doing? Quote
meddesign Posted August 6, 2011 Author Report Posted August 6, 2011 Give it a couple of days, and I will tell you. Quote
carusoam Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 Formation practice prior to flight? Or, i've lost a contact lens, can you give me a hand? Quote
Ned Gravel Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 They are looking for the PropPastie that has flown off the prop? Quote
Mooney65E Posted August 7, 2011 Report Posted August 7, 2011 Dunno,...But I do know I just wasted a minute and a half of my life that I'll never get back... Quote
meddesign Posted August 7, 2011 Author Report Posted August 7, 2011 Formation practice prior to flight? We have a winner. I will get the name of the group today so I can give them recognition too. They fly Yaks around and at local shows from N14 in NJ. The video from my phone was so poor I doubt anyone is recognizable. The name of the group is "Northeast Raiders Flight Demo Team" lets give a hand for a great performance. Quote
