Probably an old video, but one I haven't seen

They said there were tree-fellers in the cockpit but I reckon there were probably only two?

Selecting a lower-thrust rating plus temp assumed reduction plus ‘improved’ climb is an excellent qualification for tree-trimming...🤣

This is an old one you've probably seen before...just love the cameraman's comments " You're going to have to go faster than that, Captain"!
