Fast Taxi

This Learjet C 21A (40082) seems to be in a hurry, in the speed they go down the track ...

Frankly, the guy's an idiot.

Despite the fact that he took the video himself, it clearly hasn't occurred to him to do some simple maths based on the number of frames between the NLG and MLG passing the same point on the taxiway. Either that, or he's incapable of doing it.

And of course he has form when it comes to ridiculous posts about aircraft supposedly taxying faster than normal - here's a similar thread he started in July 2012:

Agreed. This bloke and his like were bad for the site - diluting the interesting content by flooding the website with garbage. I also that it was a bit devious to be trying to make ad revenue on the back of pprune and obviously there was an incentive to make the titles as sensationalist and innaccurate possible. He won't be missed.
