I see this old video is making the rounds again.
Fake, of course. It was part of an ad campaign back in 2011.
But it is amusing. And I got to thinking about how fast the truck would have to go to actually do that. Any pilots around here?
I figure that’s a 727-200, and it was supposed to have had a fairly full cabin. I’ll make a non-pilot’s SWAG that it would be landing at around 130 knots. So the truck would have to be doing about 150 MPH.
Yeah, I’d like to have a truck that could do that.
