- 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 CZcams.
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 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.
You know you're an aviation nerd when you got one of these in your back yard
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.
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!
No household's spring cleanup regimen is complete until the high bypass turbofan has been fired up..
I bet the neighbors love this..
🙉
Not any more...
ShibeFlyer all moved out XD
Hopefully no HOA either. Lol
Apollo Smile by ur grammar
“Sorry kids. You’re losing your sandbox to my new toy! A Rolls Royce jet engine!”
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.
Everything in this video. Slow tense buildup,many manly looking things,lots of noise and a big red button. Really enjoyed 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 !!!!
Guy at the end was like Don’t be looking at my girl that way.
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”
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."
The engine was a blessing in disguise that nearly destroyed the company but eventually was their saving grace.
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??
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.
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?
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
That is absolutely amazing! This video gave me goose-bumps.
Leaf blowers are handy and neighbours love them too 😃
Lockheed called, They want their engine back
Rolls Royce
That's just AWESOME!!! Great job
This is by far the most ridiculous (and most fantastic) thing I've seen on CZcams - 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.
Now, this is SICK. Hats off really.
Imagine starting the engine at 3 am.
These guys are crazy, You can't spool it up !
I'm watching this in 2021, and this is one amazing video! 👍👌😎✨
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
I MUST get one! That's freaking awesome!
coolest thing I have seen this week
Your neighbors must love you!
Thanks for this - exciting tree enclosure
Wish my neighbors were this cool
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.
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!
So you have a home RB211 Engine! Man, that's gotta be great!!
Now THIS is what you call a Rolls Royce!
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?
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.
You are so lucky being in Europe / U.K.,that you can do this ! Even Canadians can do this!
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
I love it!! Nice setup u got there.
Your neighbors must love you
Beautiful engine.
I’ll take three.
Love to have that engine in my backyard. What a way to wake the neighbours !
Your neighbors must love you.
Super great video keep up the good work
First time I see it. Amazing!
Este vídeo merece muitos likes!!! Parabéns.
Yes! twice as much fun! :-)
gasturbine101 I would just do this to annoy mine!
Kid: "mom can we have a rolls Royce at home?"
Mom: "we already have a rolls Royce at home"
Rolls Royce at home:
I want two of these ...just to play with on the weekend.
If that dude put a windmill behind that thing, he would become an instant green celebrity. Would get the green award for windmill innovation
Good lord... that's one hell of a hobby !
…and the award for “coolest toy on the planet” goes to:
It's all fun and games until somebody gets too close
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?
That was cool! thanks for the video.
I have the same test stand behind my hut on Tattoine for when I build my pod racers..
This is the best leaf blower ever!
Thats one helluva leaf blower!
65 camera guys were needed to film this engine.. NICE 👍 VIDEO guys wish i had the space to put this in my backyard
L1011 with the RB211 engines met Chapter 3 noise regs out of the box. Contemporary jets only met Chapter 2 regs.
I love this engine sound
I love how the sheep off to the left in the field are like, ya whatever....
The neighbors love you.
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.
Neighbors must love this....
I like that shirt "I'd rather be scared to death than bored to death."
Your neighbors must love you 😂
Good toy to get out at 6am on a Sunday morning 👌 strap it to ya car👍
One day... one day you'll be able to crank it up and hear that glorious buzzsaw!
Idk about that. You can't really do stationary tests with a turbofan on a high power safely
ElevatorMan5482 ElevExperiencing Productions Yeah, but... if they've gone through the trouble to get as far as they have, I'm sure they wouldn't mind pushing the boundaries just a little. Obviously, I don't want them to do anything that they feel is too dangerous. Plus, I all ready feel sorry for those trees suffering from the jet blast!
Josh Bennett You'd need hundreds and hundreds of tons of force to hold a turbofan stationary while operating on takeoff power!
Awesome mate thanks for the film Wales l think.
Great video.
Bro just has a jet engine in his backyard💀
Perfect snow blower.
I would love to have this big turbofan in my back yard... Lol!
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.
Thats good enough to be back in service rather than a test stand
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 .....
I could be wrong however what a truly brilliant way for clearing bird nests
Definitely you don't expect to ever see!
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!
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
"Pastoral home in rural setting"
"Plenty of open space to enjoy"
"Neighbor has jet engine that he randomly powers on"
Sold!
Toys for the big boys...
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.
Darling im just going into the back yard to switch the RB211 on😂😂😂
Brilliant satire
Wow....this is one hell of a hairdryer!
One of the best engines u can buy
Well done gents.
Really a great job love to hear this great powerplant run.
Bro casually owns an airliner engine in his back yard lol
Probably would make an outstanding snow blower.
