I once heard an A-10 pilot mention that if they did try that 17-18 second continuous fire they would A) stop the plane in mid-flight and B) melt the gun.

Its just a teory that comes from math. Avenger force is same as one engine on full throtle(or something like that)so if one engine was disabled and other was running on 70-90% theoreticly it would stop or go back if the burst was long enough, but thats just a theory and u never will know if its possible :)

Oh, I took it for what it was worth, which was pretty much what you said. It's just a pilot's way of saying its a BFG.
