[Easy 10]

A Harrier Jumpjet can only hover for a maximum of 90 seconds. This is because it takes maximum thrust to maintain the aircraft in a hovering position, and this puts an enormous strain on the jet engine. It has to DOUSE itself with water to prevent overheating, and the aircraft can only carry enough water to do this for 90 seconds in total. After that, the engine will explode, killing the pilot and showering everyone below with burning debris.
