dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted December 21, 2016 Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) NAMC YS-11 of Olympic Airways departing Athens for a short haul commuter run. Port engine shut down after 15 mins of flight so continued on one until the next stop. Σας ευχαριστούμε για το πέταγμα Ολυμπιακό.

Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted December 22, 2016 Report Share Posted December 22, 2016 Nice ones. I see you did an engine out/feathered test in one of those shots...how did the single dart perform? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

She flew well on one engine, the YS-11 was powered by Dart 524s which were twice as powerful as those fitted to the similarly sized Vickers Viscount which needed 4 of the earlier Darts. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
