2 cars vs 747

This is a pretty cool video of what happens when you drive behind an airplane with full power. The plane is only using 2 of its 4 engines even. It's from a British show called Top Gear. MythBusters here in the US tried the same stunt at Mojave, but weren't allowed to do so...go figure.

Shows why driving behind a jet is a bad idea ;)

Hmm, that car was blown to hell...

When I first watched it I thought they were actually going to be driving behind the plane as it went down the runway. Oh well, still fun to watch. lol

Awesome.

Try landing a Cherokee Warrior behind an airliner at night, or using a parallel runway when they are active. Great fun.

That's pretty cool

Did a parallell approach in a C172 at MSP with a jet on the other side ;) Kinda fun to hear tower tell airliners to hold due to traffic on final...that traffic being us putzing along :D
