Strong arm tactics to pull Boeing 757 aircraft

Pull a 757? You bet. We're immensly proud of all our members and when we heard that some of them were planning to take part in a plane pull, then we had to go along. So did the Beeb.

A 757 weighs about 60 tonnes, so how many wheelchair users would it take to pull it along a runway? About 50 actually and each person pulled roughly 1.3 tonnes each, thats 650Kgs of effort per arm, wow!

Take a look at the BBC news report of the training session and prepare to be amazed!
