I heard this loud popping noise and saw flame shooting out of the exhaust of a 212. It was awesome! What happened was the DM, can't remember his name, was tracking the 212 on the ground, and somehow got the cord of the strobe light wrapped around the manual governor switch of one of the engines, which is on the console, and put an engine into manual governor, at 100%. The joke at the time was; 'they overtorqued everything but the clock'. It was something to see, I'll tell you.
