SAS MD-82 impressive 'zoom' climb

  • I'm convinced that SAS have secretly fitted afterburners to the Pratt & Whitney JT8D engines on their MD-82 aircraft. With all that smoke, noise and awesome 'vertical' climbs from the runway surely reheat is the only possible explanation?
    This is flight SK2534 on its way to 60,000 feet from runway 33 at BHX.

    worked on these years ago as a mech. Loved them. Solidly built unlike the paper planes in the air these days.
    I've seen test pilots take them up on fairly steep angles. Closest thing you can get to a rocket powered plane, in an airliner

    I never thought that these jets had enough wing on them to keep them airborne! Clearly I was wrong, as they perform like an absolute hot rod.

    I remember flying md82 SAS and 83 artours as a youngster..... Definitely the steepest climb rate I've ever experienced..... With vc10 and then 757 with RR RB211's :)

  • @ChannelAsh100
    @ChannelAsh100 3 роки тому +2

    I doubt there are afterburners. It is probably a plane with no passengers or cargo, equaling ultra rocket ship capabilities. The MD-82 has a very high thrust to weight ratio as it is. And they also leave smoke normally. These pilots probably had a strong headwind too, plus an empty aircraft and possibly less than half fuel due to no payload = rocket plane.

      How does a "sharp rotation" or a high angle of climb benefit a "nose heavy" airplane???
      Nose heavy would mean higher wing loading, I would not want to pitch up sharply or a lot on an airplane with a high wing loading.

    • @KTo288
      @KTo288 8 років тому +1

      Normal climbs rely on aerodynamic lift being generated by the wings, in a full zoom climb the the attitude of the aircraft means that the wings can no longer generate lift, all altitude gain is therefore the result of thrust from the engines and the converting of any forward speed the aircraft may have into height (K.E. to P.E).
