    There is no direct conversion between thrust and horse power, as they measure different things, but the Olympus 301 isn't capable of 52,000HP. The correct rating would be around 33,000 Shaft Horsepower which would be around 40,000 Exhaust Gas Horsepower.

      Would appear to be correct Sooty655
      According to this calculator as there is a speed element to add to the calculation
      calculatorshub.net/mechanical-calculators/lb-thrust-to-hp-calculator/
      20,000lbs thrust at 645 mph = 34,400 HP
      Can't really tweak the video captions but I've updated the video description

    I did not know that the Ukrainians had specialists for the maintenance of that plane, and that the British did not, so they had to hire a Ukrainian!

    Nope, looking at that alternator change makes me uncomfortable. (52400 lbs thrust for my plane, but MUCH easier to replace the generator.)

    Even I know there is no direct conversion between horsepower and thrust and I'm a marine biologist.
    And he can take that stupid Ukrainian flag off too.
