    Once loaded on the ship, They should have 'pitched the propeller blades so they wont 'catch air and start spinning.

    I worked in the aviation field especially in the military the swing that is designed for that aircraft can is designed to lift the aircraft complete full of fuel oil and all that out of the water wrecked or not wrecked so them saying that's untested it's is tested it can handle it now normally that the wings will be removed before this thing will be hooked up but is designed to be able to do with the wings on

    Sorry to be a denier, but I am sure they wouldn't gamble with a multi-million $ airplane being loaded onto a ship with amateurs. This would have been done by professionals, who are insured. Joe is a smart guy, and while it makes for great entertainment, I am sure the old water bomber would have been transported by people who knew what they were doing.

      its the speed that the nose is lifted (rotated) off the ground, but it not the aircraft flying speed, that would be your lift off speed, which is higher than rotation speed
