Very cool, were the fans turning on those motors while they were working on them??

Kool video Mr Gnome

But, I bet not one of the mechanics were worth their Union Pay

NO bro it was wind from the storm, they shut the docking bay doors,to continue work with no spin on fan.

Or, they were testing the engines.

[LoveThisTruck]

Very cool:congrats:

I think I can do that... wonder how much $$$$$ those mechanics make:dontknow:

 

[andrew heywood]

Hangers, not docking bays.

It takes very little to spin the engines so that is why they were spinning. You noticed that it was stormy, so it was the wind that was turning the engine in the video. They do not test them in the hanger.

Just to give you an idea of the size of those engines, they are the same diameter as the fuselage (body section) of a 727, 737 or 757.

They are big muthers.
