    3:31 Excelente capacidade de carga , tendo em vista que estamos falando de um avião monomotor . Se levar em conta que cada paraquedista pesa em media 75 quilos , embarcaram uns 18 homens , logo seria 1350 quilos, fora o puloto e os equipamentos . Muito bom !!! 👍🏼😁

    Does it have to have an APU to start? If so, why can't it start on its own battery?

    • @calvinnickel9995
      @calvinnickel9995 2 дня назад

      Because it’s a Garret and takes a ton more power to start. Most planes designed with Garrets have two batteries that you can put in series for more starting power.

      Se necesita tiempo para finalizar el proceso de arranque del motor. Ese día realizaron alrededor de 12 incursiones para lanzar paracaidistas. Al arrancar el motor antes de abordar, ahorraron un tiempo precioso.

    • @DrBearAviation
      @DrBearAviation  5 месяцев назад +5

      The pilot lifts the front wheel off the ground at a low speed and holds that attitude. With the further acceleration, the plane will get airborne when it "wants" to get airborne. This way the passengers will have a silky experience and do not have the feeling of aircraft being pulled into air.
