 ::) Indeed! ::)

The 727`s Whitcombe winglets and trailing edge devices just haven`t been modelled well enough in that CGI.....IMHO, just a viral advert for a pickup truck. :P

Agreed Debs the plane would have flattened the truck and as for the braking power of the Nissan to pull up the plane as shown ::)

Hmm. Jet approaching at, what? 150 knots (170+MPH). Crappy Datsun pickup just pulls off half way up the runway and matches its' speed? :-\ Then supports the entire weight on the nose wheel (70+ tonne aircraft) without the suspension even compressing let alone the whole truck becoming embedded in the tarmac. ;D

Yeah, it's "dangle-berries". ::)
