Anyone see this one!!!!

Notice the landing gear???

30ft off the ground at full on throttle!!!

he was fired before that plane landed!!

The plane was brand new and they were picking it up from Beoing Everett. The captain was pulled from retirement to fly this one home and thought it would be cool to give the Everett employees a good bye!!

WOW!!!

Saw that on the news, I thought he WAS the number 1 test pilot for the airline. They said he was fired. There was also, way back when, a test pilot that barreled rolled a 707 over SeaFair at Lk. Washington. I think he was fired but they sold a ton of planes afterwards. No such thing as bad publicity.

No such thing as bad publicity.
