Why can't 655 fly?

No-ones saying it cant fly wink
It's just not allowed to leave contact with the ground

Must be terrible, only being able to taxi. Like cracking one off and stopping before you get to the vinegar strokes. Did I just say that out loud?

Having only 3 out 4 working engines will help with that as well....(or is it Lusty that only has 3 working now...I know one of them has, just can't remember if it's TT or LL..???)
