I seem to recall hearing from someone that if an A-10 fires the GAU-8 for too long, it stalls... Anyone know if this is true?

It's complete bullshit. The Avenger would fire off all of it's ammo before it even got close to stalling the plane, and the jet engines are more than capable of countering the recoil from the gun.

No worries, "stall" was my mistake.

Har.
Freakin'.

:suicide:
Sounds like my NES game just crashed
[QUOTE=Coridan;38481828]Fucking hajis.[/QUOTE]
Fuck yeah. You just made my day.
While the GAU can't cause the plane to stall, the recoil does amount to about 25% of the engine's max thrust. Which is a fuckton.

Source ?
[quote]The recoil force of the GAU-8/A[14] is 10,000 pounds-force (45 kN),[3] which is slightly more than the output of one of the A-10's two TF34 engines (9,065 lbf / 40.3 kN each).[15] While this recoil force is significant, in practice cannon fire only slows the aircraft a few miles per hour.[13][/quote]

So actually more than 25%
