Just to see if it would work, I tried to take off a fully loaded 747 on 3 engines (no. 3 engine off). It worked, but it only just got off with the 4 km/13,000 ft runway. Shortly after take off, another engine failed (conveniently the no. 2 engine) and I even managed to fly it a few hundred miles (it was easier to fly with the engine gone anyway), land and taxi to parking.
My next challenge was a twin engine plane. First, I tried the A321. Everything went fine... until I started the engine. Then the plane began to spin around in circles, despite everything I had trying to pull it the other way. Same story with the 737-800.
I decided I needed something with the engines a little closer together. And so, I decided on the CRJ700. After a swerving across the runway a few times, I took off (and eventually landed) the CRJ.
Next would be my biggest challenge of them all, the crowning achievement... a single engine plane (minus one engine). Unfortunately, the Cessna 172 just sat on the runway. No amount of full power could get it to move. Try again next time I suppose.
Note: all of these flights were flown without any weather at all, no helping winds.
