OOPS!
This brand spanking  new Airbus 340-600, the largest  passenger airplane ever  built, sits just outside its hangar in Toulouse, France without a single hour of airtime.

Enter the Arab flight  crew of Abu Dhabi Aircraft Technologies(ADAT) to conduct  pre-delivery tests on the  ground, such  as engine run-ups prior to  delivery to Etihad Airways in Abu  Dhabi.

The ADAT crew taxied the  A340-600 to the run-up area.

Then they took all Four engines to takeoff power with  a virtually empty aircraft. Not having Read the  run-up manuals, they had no clue just how light an  empty

A340-600 Really  is.

The takeoff warning horn was blaring away in the  cockpit because they had All 4 engines at full  power. The aircraft computers  thought they were trying to take off, but it had not been  configured properly (flaps/slats, etc..)

Then one of the ADAT crew decided to pull the  circuit breaker on the Ground Proximity Sensor to silence the  alarm. This fools the aircraft into thinking it is in the  air.

The computers automatically released all the Brakes and set the aircraft rocketing  forward. The ADAT crew had no  idea that this is a  safety feature so that pilots can’t  land with the brakes on.

Not one member of the seven-man Arab crew was smart  enough to throttle  back the engines  from their max power  setting, so the $200 million brand-new Aircraft crashed into a  blast barrier, totaling it.

The extent of injuries to the crew is unknown due to  the news blackout in the major media in France and  elsewhere.

Coverage of the story was deemed insulting to Muslim  Arabs.

Finally, the photos are starting to leak  out.

A French Airbus:   $200 million dollars
Untrained Arab Flight Crew:  $300,000 Yearly Salary
Unread Operating Manual:  $300

Aircraft meets retaining wall and the wall wins.

PRICELESS!!!
