One of the most interesting uses of the afterburning variant is in the Mitsubishi T-2 trainer, which is one of only a few jet trainer aircraft with afterburning engines.
Knowing whats been happening to that engine prior to it being sold by the RAF, I'd be standing a lot, lot further back from it than you guys are!!! That said, credit for getting it running.
That 'Rumble' as the Adour starts up would come through your feet when doing see-offs!! - Also used to ground run Jags during my time 1974-1979 (RAF) and 1982-1985 (Oman). I was a 'Sooty'. My 'Forte' was N1/N2 Tank changes - must of done 'hundreds' during my time. Couldn't get in there now!!
lol all i could think about was those straps are probably rated for what 150degrees c and probably nowhere near the amount of load they were under hahaha but man that ffing awesome!!!
Looks Like a very dodgy set up, you need to mount this engine by the main thrust mount, not the lugs on the side of the Intermediate case, they are meant for transportation only.
What a awesome lawnmower 🤩👍

That's presumably why it was modified from a trainer into a combat aircraft to become the F-1

Great effort s bro
Takes me back. I would have thought it safer to run it on the de-tuner though. Thanks. Ex-Liney
Love the pint sized APU, can we have a little info about that please?
It’s called a Microturbo gas generator, the same unit you find in a Hawk

Yeah, at military power (5500lbf) they probably wouldn't had survived.
Super
very surprised its not bolted down considering what kind of engine it is
I was also wondering, would be eager to know at wich percentage of power output it was tested.
Nice one James, glad to see the elves of safety didn't attend ;-)
What % did you get her up to? Reheat next...? Adour exit stage right...!
@james Where did you get the test equipment from?
Iam looking at the smallest G.T.E. behind it.. kinda lovely to own.

Nearly bought one of those that was sat at Hanningfield Metals... don't suppose this is it?
Two cargo straps holding the engine down lol
if you know any for sale would be interested??
looks like it’s started?
Great video ! watched it twice... tell me please; what make or model is the small centrifugal engine on the starting cart ?
It's a Microturbo Saphir, one of a handful of engines designed solely as air producers. It produces fifty air horsepower.
What kind of APU is that?
So small!
TYPHOON PLANE JET ENGINE? HOW MANY RPM
SEPCAT Jaguar engine, Typhoon uses much larger EJ200’s
