cause that would bend the engine output shaft or something, like when you throttle up and the weight of the aircraft loads up the props in the same direction?

other than thin skins, aircraft are generally quite robust when loaded with a person's weight.

maybe. personally i find nothing surprising about it (I have legitimate opinions, I'm not just a Boeing fanboy)

Emirates uses Engine Alliance (GE/Pratt) GP7200's on their A380s

If nothing else, you should never have your hands in the prop arc, EVER!

One shorted P-lead and well, it wouldn't be a good thing.

Generally not a good habit I agree, but it certainly won't hurt the airplane at all. Oh, and a shorted P-lead would prevent the airplane from ever starting, a broken P-lead would be the problem leaving the mag's hot.

Thanks for the clarification. But I am sure to see RR on a A380. Do they come with different parts or I am wrong?

I'll have to check the dimensions at 240dpi and see just how big it could be printed.

I'm torn between 6' wide X whatever tall Vs whatever wide X 3' tall.
