Airbus A380 Engine Explosion Test – Imagine That Happening Mid Flight!!

If you have ever wondered why passenger airplanes are so expensive, then one look at this test that is a small part of the equation might just tell you why.

Engineers work seemingly endless hours and destroy hundreds of thousands of dollars in equipment to make sure that the same destruction doesn’t happen when the plane is in the air.

This time, we check out some testing that is designed to ensure that malfunction of one of the engines won’t send shrapnel through other crucial parts.

Instead, the idea here is to contain any potential blast damage so that the plane can maintain normal function and land safely for repair.

Check out the explosive testing in the video below that causes some major destruction… Better down here than up in the air where lives are in danger.
