Many a year a ago I spent a very noisy 1/2 hr or so repositioning a German C160 infront of another because of starting problems.
It required huge amounts of power which undoubtedly did neither airframe or engine any good.
Not to mention the vibration subjected to surrounding buildings and structures not to mention my soft jelly like innards!
End result harry the hun got home!
more to the point they gave me a lift home to my parents in the midlands whilst stopping off at BHX result!
