Not a bug.  The first row of vanes on the real 727 engines do not spin. Wink

Hehe...I don't know why, you might want to ask someone at Pratt & Whitney why they designed them like that.  Wink

I remember asking these cuestion in a FS Forum long time ago, after flying in a real 727 from Iberia in the very late 90's, and observing this issue.

Same happened with 707.
