Yes an unfortunate end to a great A/C. If you ever needed a demonstration as to why your average turbine flight manual reads "in flight selection of beta (/reverse) is prohited" that video would be it.

With only seconds to impact, Wayne fights to control the descent speed and hit at the most survivable angle.

I'm waiting for someone from the ski racing fraternity to mate one of those light weight -10's into a 18' lightweight bullet ski boat.

Then I won't have long to wait till someone mounts two of em!

Taking the original 300hp, 100 + mph outfit to 2000 hp same weight, = yee haa!
