Where's the goose?


kiint - 2009-01-29

there is no goose


mouser - 2009-01-29

Our Canadian army sucks. But our trained stealth geese are a killer.


Camonk - 2009-01-29

Geese are anti-matter to engines. A goose will fuck up an engine.


Hugo Gorilla - 2009-01-29

That engine's goose was cooked.


big pincers - 2009-01-30

YYEAAHHH!!!


Hooper_X - 2009-01-29

It's pate now.


Chancho - 2009-01-29

That engine is worth about half a million dollars.


kiint - 2009-01-29

was


Frank Rizzo - 2009-01-29

but the explosion was priceless


Noober - 2009-01-30

Actually no, they cost a quarter of a million, it's just that they have to blow every other one up for quality control


zatojones - 2009-01-29

-1 because no slow-mo


NineEleven - 2009-01-29

Why can't they just put chicken wire over the front?


zatojones - 2009-01-29

Because the engine has to take in a certain amount of air in order to burn enough fuel quickly enough to create enough thrust to push the airplane, which weighs a certain amount, fast enough to sustain flight. When you start restricting air intake you decrease the efficiency of the engine which results in less thrust and ultimately less ability to push that airplane. Given that catastrophic FOD is relatively rare it's not worth doing.


mouser - 2009-01-29

I have a feeling the question wasn't really serious.

It's obvious a Labrador retriever would be way more efficient at keeping the flocks away.


hornung - 2009-01-29

how would chicken wire stop a goose?
gray geese and wild turkeys are nature's smartest animals found in nature and can figure out how to circumnavigate simple protective devices.


NineEleven - 2009-01-29

what about if you put a grid of lasers in front


Desidiosus - 2009-01-29

Maybe it would just be safer for people and geese if we all just took up yogic flying.


glendower - 2009-01-30

Maybe they could put a wolf cub near the engine to scare away the geese.


kiint - 2009-01-29

on the plus side, that engine looks cool. I wish planes had plexiglass paneling sections so you could see everything working underneath while you were flying...or maybe not


SolRo - 2009-01-29

stupid, this is a fan blade failure test

which is why you see one blade a different color, that's the blade with an explosive charge in it


Triggerbaby - 2009-01-29

That's what the geese want you to think.


Konversekid - 2009-01-29

You can even hear someone say "fire" before the explosion.


Hooper_X - 2009-01-29

hahahah, I thought for a minute that was the one they were throwing the goose at.


j lzrd / swift idiot - 2009-01-29

And an awesome fan blade failure it was.

SolRo, you did it again. Rate the video, not the misinformed title. A jet engine fucking explodes, and you're stomping about, puffing up and bellowing about inaccuracy. You could have given it its rightful rating, THEN gone apoplectic. You're not very good at having your cake and eating it too.


RockBolt - 2009-01-29

YEAH ALL YOU STUPID IDIOTS, GOD


SolRo - 2009-01-29

also, there are much better videos of blade failure tests than this, like in the hopper.


robotkarateman - 2009-01-29

Submitted by SolRo.


MrBuddy - 2009-01-30

Out of the hopper. http://www.poetv.com/video.php?vid=52400
The other video explains what's going on but this video is more exciting.


robotkarateman - 2009-01-30

What's truly sad is I was joking. I didn't know the ones in the hopper really were his and he was being a prattling twat by declaring "MY VIDEOZ IZ BETR THEN URS!!!" and 1-starring this.

I think that's the douchiest thing I've ever seen on PoeTV.


StanleyPain - 2009-01-29

Now....it's garbage.


glasseye - 2009-01-29

-2 for retarded misinformed title & tags.


Hooker - 2009-01-29

Did the goose survive?
