    I was going to include a video of the sound at take off thrust where the clappers are clapping!! To me at least the RBs are the best sounding.

    Nothing too exciting... maybe a little rust
    Looks like #2 based on the bits of wing you can see in the edges of the picture.

    It was not. That's the right engine (or number 2 depending on your age and what fleet you work).

    I know shit happens and I wonder what else he had going on to make an error that obvious. Good vis, clear markings...just makes you wonder.

    You can see the shadow of his aircraft passing over the AA jet.

    Noice.

    Scimitar Winglets on da 738 = :thumbsup:

    Of course the 757 is my pick of the birds (even tho RR would look & sound better than the P&W 2000s installed) & Southwest is my favorite Airline (especially in the US).
