Cool vid. Thanks for sharing. My father-in-law retired from there after 45 years of service. Only job he ever knew since 16.

It was always fun doing engine runs in the 22 with the P&W 119's. They "say" 35,000 lbs of thrust....times 2. We werent "supposed" to go above 80% on the flightline....we all did at least once haha. The pucker factor is up there when you have the brakes mashed down and youre watching the RPM's go past 80%, and thats just one engine above 80%, The guy on the ground can hardly hear you through the headset lol.
