| Travel › WATCH:Boeing 747 Jet Blast Blowing People Away At Princess Juliana Int. Airport by obafemee80(op): 2:48pm On Apr 20, 2019 |
Boeing 747 Low Landing & Jet Blast At Princess Juliana International Airport https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDkIHqiwOcs Princess Juliana Airport in Saint Maarten is the most famous Airport in the Caribbean island. It has a runway that is only 2,179 meters long, which is very short considering the large aircraft that land there requires more than 2,500 meters to ensure a safe landing and takeoff . The airport was initially built for smaller planes, but the booming tourist industry has brought A340s and 747s into the regular traffic rotation. https://i1.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_20190420_142303_891-600x399.jpg https://i2.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_20190420_142617_568.jpg https://i0.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_20190420_142630_600.jpg Apart from the short runway, it is very famous for its closeness to the beach, which sees giant aircrafts land within spitting distance of sunseekers and planespotters. This placement often results in large and loud gusts of wind and sand to those enjoying the crystal blue water as shown in the video above . In 2015, the airport handled 1,829,543 passengers and around 60,000 aircraft movements. https://autojosh.com/watch-boeing-747-jet-blast-blowing-people-away-at-princess-juliana-international-airport/ Cc Lalasticlala Mynd44 2 Likes |

Not only did the driver manage to free himself from the pile of twisted metal, he also left the wreckage unharmed, apart from a few scratches and bruises. According to carscoop, the owner of the car, Scott Shepherd, was driving his Toyota MR2 Spyder when a speeding pickup suddenly entered his lane. https://i1.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_20190416_115303_143.jpg https://i0.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_20190416_115220_957.jpg https://i1.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_20190416_115312_635.jpg As it did, a bucket flew out from the back of the pickup , so he had to swerve to avoid hitting it. But he lost control of the 2001 MR2 and did a 180 turn under an oncoming truck. The massive accident left the front end of the car crushed and the man trapped in the driver’s seat, without being able to move his legs. So he took off his shoes, cut the roof and bended the frame to free himself. Shepherd said: “Other than a couple of scratches and bruises, I walked away unharmed” It is sheer luck he wasn't killed or seriously injured in this violent crash with the Truck.What do you think? https://autojosh.com/man-praised-toyota-engineers-after-surviving-this-horrific-crash-with-a-truck/ Cc Lalasticlala Mynd44 |

The teaser images and a 32 secs clip shows off the 2020 Bentley Flying Spur with a "Flying B" ornament coming out of its bonnet , just like the famous "Spirit of Ecstasy" that had adorned the bonnets of Rolls-Royce luxury cars for years. https://i2.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_20190411_075135_760.jpg And the "Flying Bs" Wings seems to have a glowing light in them ,which makes the ornament look pretty and expensive. Bentley will reveal the full details of the all-new four-door Grand Tourer later this year . But power may likely come from the new version of Bentley's 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12, driving all four wheels though an eight-speed automatic transmission. It’s cool to see Bentley putting a motorised, retractable ornaments on the upcoming Flying Spur Grand Tourer sedan , but no one is going to see that and not think they copied the Rolls-Royce .

There is an intercom system to allow occupants to communicate with the driver , or reject the call coming in from up front. https://i1.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/457231-600x400-600x400.jpg A pair of 12-inch monitors are also mounted in the partition as part of the on-board infotainment system. There are fabric curtains that can be slid over the rear windows The standard wheelbase of 2019 Rolls-Royce Phantom starts at about ₦163m ($450,000),before shipping and ckearing. But bespoke options like the Privacy Suite ,that is only available for those ordering a long wheelbase model , could push it to an average order price of ₦218m ($600,000).

The aircraft maker says production will drop from 52 planes a month to 42 from the middle of April -a cut of 19%.The decision is a response to a halt in deliveries of the 737 Max - the model involved in the two accidents. The plane is currently grounded around the world as preliminary findings suggest its anti-stall system was at fault. A report from the Ethiopian authorities said the pilots of flight ET302 "repeatedly" followed procedures recommended by Boeing before the crash. https://i0.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/IMG_20190407_155501_655-600x362.jpg https://i1.wp.com/autojosh.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/RTS2G7KN-e1554530977203-600x338.jpg Before issues with the 737 MAX arose, Boeing had planned to increased production of the aircraft from 52 to 57 planes per month,after signing more than 5,000 orders for the plane.
