SimFixer Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Airliners.net says it jumped the chocks during an engine run. No confirmation of that though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spunk-Y Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 (edited) well I go for the hydraulic/brake failure, and after that jumped over the chocks. because no one is going to test run with only wheel chocks, I work with 737-7/800's with CFM-56 engines. and we use the brakes and the chocks, and then we can do only both engines to 80 or 85% max, and to go for 100% I believe they do 75% on 1 and 100% on the other engine. Maybe other people can confirm this? Edited November 18, 2007 by Spunk-Y Quote Link to post Share on other sites
