Film of a prototype 737 operating on a grass runway.
I'm a little fried, so I'll leave it to you to research the details of the test.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or

leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
Apparently it was a demonstration of capability for the 737.
