These pictures are actually a couple months old, but I just saw them for the first time. They are pretty amazing, and even more so when you realize that no one got killed. "Etihad was to receive their next A340 this week, but it seems that delivery may be delayed. While running an engine test at the Airbus facility in Toulouse, France, the A340-600 jumped the chocks and headed for the blast wall. The good news is the blast wall held up remarkably well. The bad news is the Airbus did not."
