- www.gasturbineworld.co.uk Worlds biggest back yard jet the mighty RR RB211! Brought to life by two APUs; A H & S Stad 250 (LP Starter MK12) and a Garrett GTCP85 BAC 1-11 APU
Been watching this clip for about 3 years and never get bored.
Imagine having a RB 211 in your back yard
Me too....its one of the best videos on TH-cam.
Her: "what are you listening to rn?"
Me: "Spring Crank Up by Rolls Royce RB211"
I flew as a young man with my father on an Air Canada L1011 to Europe with those exact 3 engines. My dream is not a Porche. But rather one of those beautiful engines in my family room. Their power, their roar, their elegance……. Yep… it’s a man’s stupid world. Cheers from Montreal,Canada….
ENJOY YOUR PORSCHE ...PORSCHE NOT PORCHE BTW ...cheers mate .
You know you're an aviation nerd when you got one of these in your back yard
In case nobody else said it, thank you guys for doing the work to get this gem working, and thank you for sharing with us. As for the tee-shirt, your wish may come true!
Wow. This thing used to run at high power, hour after hour at minus 50 degrees in the stratosphere, day in, day out. I know enough about jet engines to know the fuel burn at sea level, even at idle, is insane... good on you for doing this.
you guys are nuts getting that close hahaha
RB211 is definitely one of the best engines ever made. So reliable and powerful, as well as sounding amazing.
The greatest sounding engine ever made. I lament that the latest Trents on the A350 and so on have lost their buzzsaw noise.
I bet the neighbors love this..
🙉
Not any more...
ShibeFlyer all moved out XD
Hopefully no HOA either. Lol
Apollo Smile by ur grammar
No household's spring cleanup regimen is complete until the high bypass turbofan has been fired up..
All that equipment, buttons, lights, fuel and noise, just to watch a fan go round and grass being flattened! Boys and thier toys! Love it. ❤
He randomly has a expensive rolls Royce Trent engine in his backyard! Very normal nothing unusual
I don’t think my neighbours would be pleased if I got one of these! 😂
Along with matching APU. Perfectly normal.
The RB211 was the forerunner of the Trent-series.
Stands for rolls barnoldswick they built and tested them there in 70s
Not only that, he has an APU from a BAC 1-11 !!!!
Random guy at bar: You can't get a
noise disturbance violation in under an hour.
Other guy: Hold my beer...
hahahahaha !!!!!!!!!
Lol I have friends who collect tornado/air raid sirens. They could get one in minutes.
Train horns can also get you in deep trouble, and quickly.
“Sorry kids. You’re losing your sandbox to my new toy! A Rolls Royce jet engine!”
Everything in this video. Slow tense buildup,many manly looking things,lots of noise and a big red button. Really enjoyed it.
Guy at the end was like Don’t be looking at my girl that way.
I think the RB-211 had the best startup sound of any jet engine. Cold day starts were the best with some fogging action to go with the startup.
these guys never heard of inlet/exhaust hazard areas
You never worked there . Keyboard Warrior .
the RB211 is too weak to pull this guy's weight due to his enormous balls of steel. Juts saying
Honey.....gimmy some gas money....l need to run the leaf blower....
no there balls of steel act as a anchor
@@segredosdotiosam9989 ahh man I copied your comment I didint see lol
Well, he always wanted a Rolls Royce.
Lmao
Yeah this is the kind of RR I’d want. RB211 or Trent 1000
What the neighbours grass cutter sounds like at 8AM
bluemeannie grass cater in Australia we call the lawn mowers
Yea, I live in America we call em' lawn mowers or lawn tractors but I call em' lawn tractors.
bluemeannie you are funny! :-)
It's a Lawn mower with a rolls royce plane engine
The fuck is a grass cutter
This has to be the coolest thing I've seen and heard in a long time!
Him:“What do you have in your backyard?” Me: “a Rolls Royce jetengine”
Him: “o ok”
I wouldn't even stand 10 ft next to that thing. Looks very powerful! Imagine if that was a GE-90 115B!
That could wipe out a couple nearby houses easily.
@@TheOwlwhere is the nearby house?
The engine was a blessing in disguise that nearly destroyed the company but eventually was their saving grace.
Id love to fire up a GE90 in my back yard.
1 engine burns around 18 gallons of jet A1 per minute or 1 whole year of equivalent car fuel burned in 30 minutes.
"Breaking news, earth's rotation suddenly sped up due to a homeowner's GE90 running in his back yard."
OMG THATS THE COOLEST THING IVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE!!!!!!!
as a kid i always imagined having a jet engine in my yard and showing it to all of my friends and making people think there was an airplane
im so jealous rightnow
im 18 ill study enough so one day ill be able to afford this^^
Indeed.. he's 2 young for dat. He should watch it while eating a huge toasted chicken..
He should be old enough for „ a Serbian movie“
@@Siqipilaci anyone talking about serbia? My country 😂😂
@@ivanrasevic374
Oohhhoo шта има 😂
I don‘t why i wrote that but this movie gave me schizophrenia. Never watch it
@@Siqipilaci zemljak??
Lockheed called, They want their engine back
Rolls Royce
This is by far the most ridiculous (and most fantastic) thing I've seen on TH-cam - you could only best it by firing a Saturn V rocket in that backyard. I was nearly without words until ...
Question: what was the fuel cost of this "Spring Crank Up?" You folks have disposable income I'm quite jealous of.
This video is by far a favourite, in no small part due to childhood nostalgia. In the late 70s - early 80s, I wandered the isles of the ElTenEleven during transatlantic flights - the parents traveled an awful lot.
I still remember the terribly bad earphone audio of the in-flight videos, and the dual lead headphone jacks to watch the CRT RGB projection movies; I opted for the Casey Kasem narrated in-flight documentaries, using the analogue channel selector. All that to drown out the sweet music of these RR jet engines! How foolish.
Good times.
Old ladies in the next village thinking the world is ending, cows getting knocked over.....absolute carnage.....
Imagine starting the engine at 3 am.
That is absolutely amazing! This video gave me goose-bumps.
I'm watching this in 2021, and this is one amazing video! 👍👌😎✨
World's largest leaf blower. Or car wash dryer. Hell, I'd like to put that on top of my '99 Ford Contour. Needs help merging onto the interstate.
NVRAMboi The boost time sucks though..
Meh just make sure you time it :D
Merging by removing everyone behind you off the road!
Great video! Love to see the old engines still running. I am not an engineer, but I was a ramp rat for many years. The guy with the camerahas a death wish or is completely oblivious to the power of an RB211 even at idle. Especially because the engine is mounted lower than when normally mounted on an L1011. @4:40 WTF!!
Even a JT8D on a 737-200 can suck you in at idle. I'm the last person to talk safety but I had to add my 2 cents. Don't want to see such a cool project ruined by sucking in a guy and his camera equipment. However, that would make a viral video. :}
So true, I work on 757's and would never dare get that close to the inlet at idle let alone at power. You need to come from the side just aft of the gear box and forward of the c duct.
Imagine if the other camera guy stood directly behind the engine for just a couple seconds, imagine what his skin would look like😲
i thought the same thing!
Isn't that the truth. I can't tell if he either has some brass cojones the size of watermelons, or is incredibly stupid. These guys and their equipment are way too close to the mouth of that turbofan, talk about reckless. I'm surprised dude didn't get turned into ground beef. That'd be like getting pulled into a wood chipper. When I saw that I thought holy hell, you did not just walk up to the mouth of a running turbofan. The close up video of that spinner isn't worth the risk of ingestion. Someone needs to show him the video of the aircraft carrier flight deck guy that approached an A-6 Intruder, that was on the catapult preparing for takeoff, and he was standing instead of stooping and got sucked into the intake. Lucky for him the airflow sensor caught his vest and only his helmet and goggles went through the engine causing it to spit blades and flames out the nozzle. The pilot shut it down and the guy was able to crawl back out. Said he could barely breath it was sucking so much air. His head was just inches from the intake stator vanes of that JT8A/J52-P8B turbojet.
i cant find it
Leaf blowers are handy and neighbours love them too 😃
Wish my neighbors were this cool
In another video you can see that they are using the main engine mounts to help support the engine in that trailer.
I would still be leary of taking that much above idle, due to the chance of damaging the cases where the ground handling/trailer mounts attach.
Not to mention it might end up in the next town sucking all that nice equipment in the intake as it heads off down the road.
Love how the RB211-22 rumbles as it transitions to idle after it lights off, great sound.
What my pc sounds like when running pubg
Nah. That would give you like 2 fps, you need a titan v sli, 1tb of ram and 2 i9 CPU's
shiba plays *running pornhub*
Lol
it sounds like my brain when i have responsibilities
shiba plays 1tb of RAM? R u high? You need at least 8 I think you’re talking about drive storage
That's just AWESOME!!! Great job
I just love this I am an Ex RAF aircraft engineer I worked on the VC10 flying test bed that developed the RB211! I love your set up - the old RAF Palouste starter trolley to start thew APU then the APU to start the RB211 superb work guys! The engine saved ROlls Royce and was the foreruner of the BEST engines in thw world - THE MIGHT TRENT series! Do you ever run her up to FULL TO/GA power?
Now, this is SICK. Hats off really.
Now THIS is what you call a Rolls Royce!
That's a fun little toy to have in your backyard... Glad that rig it was mounted on was sturdy or that would have been an interesting surprise.
Kid: "mom can we have a rolls Royce at home?"
Mom: "we already have a rolls Royce at home"
Rolls Royce at home:
L1011 with the RB211 engines met Chapter 3 noise regs out of the box. Contemporary jets only met Chapter 2 regs.
Thank you for sharing this and an amazingly cool historical relic you have there! Why can't I have neighbors with toys like this in their backyard?
…and the award for “coolest toy on the planet” goes to:
These guys are crazy, You can't spool it up !
Your neighbors must love you!
Thanks for this - exciting tree enclosure
coolest thing I have seen this week
I MUST get one! That's freaking awesome!
It's all fun and games until somebody gets too close
You are so lucky being in Europe / U.K.,that you can do this ! Even Canadians can do this!
I love it!! Nice setup u got there.
Woking out on the ramp at JFK I know the sound of these all too well. These engines literally shook the ground upon start up, you felt it right in your chest. Yet this never happened with the DC10 or 747, wonder why .....
So you have a home RB211 Engine! Man, that's gotta be great!!
If that dude put a windmill behind that thing, he would become an instant green celebrity. Would get the green award for windmill innovation
Love to have that engine in my backyard. What a way to wake the neighbours !
I have the same test stand behind my hut on Tattoine for when I build my pod racers..
Hope your good friends with the neighbors lol. This would ruin a quiet Sunday morning for about 20 miles around lol. I'd be so confused the first time I heard that off in the distance lol.
Beautiful engine.
I’ll take three.
Darling im just going into the back yard to switch the RB211 on😂😂😂
Brilliant satire
Bro just has a jet engine in his backyard💀
Next time my neighbour comes to complain about something I'm going to send him this clip and tell him to STFU.
Sarah Seibert probably blow him off the yard with this beast.
better still, get an engine and blow his house down hahahaha
I would love to have this big turbofan in my back yard... Lol!
Este vídeo merece muitos likes!!! Parabéns.
Super great video keep up the good work
That was very, very, impressive boys!!! These boys know how to play with BIG TOYS, I LOVE, IT, SINCE I LIVE OUT IN THE COUNTRY, FARMLAND THAT IS, ID LIKE TO PURCHASE ME A TAIL ENGINE OFF A DC-10, AND PLANT IT IN MY BACK YARD AND PLAY WITH IT.👌👏😉✌️👍. I LOVE THAT ENGINE WHISTLING ROAR!!!!!!!, MUSIC TO MY EARS!!!!😉
Your neighbors must love you
I love how the sheep off to the left in the field are like, ya whatever....
I don't know how you got that, but that is definitely the right thing to have on your front lawn.
First time I see it. Amazing!
Very impressive! I wonder if the engine can be heard in nearby Cardiff when it's run up on test? It would be very interesting to see and hear some of the rest of your remarkable collection - especially the smaller jet engines - Many thanks from Rob G3XFD.
I want two of these ...just to play with on the weekend.
That was cool! thanks for the video.
I like that shirt "I'd rather be scared to death than bored to death."
"Pastoral home in rural setting"
"Plenty of open space to enjoy"
"Neighbor has jet engine that he randomly powers on"
Sold!
I love this engine sound
65 camera guys were needed to film this engine.. NICE 👍 VIDEO guys wish i had the space to put this in my backyard
Yes! twice as much fun! :-)
gasturbine101 I would just do this to annoy mine!
That clattering noise at the end.. few would ever guess that all those fan blades wiggle around a little in their "fir tree" slots, so when they're pointed up they're positioned a little different than when they're hanging down, and so each of them sequentially transitioning between the various contact points in the fir tree results in that consistent clatter noise.
One good surge and the woods behind the engine will be an inferno
Bro casually owns an airliner engine in his back yard lol
Your neighbors must love you.
Keep it in mind, this engine was only at idle 10% throttle the entire video.
Clearly not. If you listen and pay attention to the gauges then you'll see that it was a tad more than idle.
Yeah it could come lose and fly across the yard.
Joe's RC Planes Yeah, it wasn't a real startup... Just a fake video to show that they have the coolest toys... Why would anyone waste money on jet fuel to start up an engine in the middle of a fucking field???
Joe's RC Planes A 10,000 pound running jet engine hanging on that flimsy steel stand?? No, BUSTED! Not buying it, never will.
Joe's RC Planes Well, one thing we do agree on - these guys are jackasses!
Good lord... that's one hell of a hobby !
Great video.
I need one of these for my aviation Man Cave! :) At least I have a NOS Rolls Royce Engine block with the original packaging from an RB211.
This was my mission every morning giving pilot play by play every change taking place as engine started to full power at 35 below zero. Wait till you see start in these conditions. This start if not mistaking was roughly 50%. The structure looks as though it would never support a full throttle boost.
Awesome mate thanks for the film Wales l think.
Moms using their Hairdryers be like
Fantastic video, can those 2 APUs spin it up to max rpm? is any fuel being injected into the Turbine?
On shutdown, it sounded like my mums old twin tub washer. I always expected it to throw a bearing or something . The whole house used to shake when she was washing,
Definitely you don't expect to ever see!
Thats one helluva leaf blower!
Perfect snow blower.
Cool, now you're only missing two more engines and an Airplane.
Toys for the big boys...
That grinding sounds like some sort of slight contact between the blades and the coweling or rubbing on the compressor behind it 🤔 I've been on a tri star truly brilliant air craft air pressure release on landing was a bit vicious tho had a few nose bleeds around the cabin but all I got was ear ache lucky for me
Your neighbors must love you 😂
