Caught On Video

I HATE flying airplanes that have identical looking flap and gear switches.

We have a rental rule for cases like this

"No touch and goes in complex aircraft"

What about meeting the FAR requirements?

???
I am not aware of any requirements to do touch and go's. (And I don't do them myself since they don't count for currency for me.)

A little slow on final perhaps????

Looks more like an aiming point problem.

TKS makes for a slippery foot step. Comment from uploader:

Home from hospital. Cracked rib. Deice fluid is slippery, just gotta be very careful.

Clear, sharp,picture... Is it your video? If so, was this recorded using a GoPro?

I was kinda waiting for the parachute to pop out..:wink2:

Not mine. Look at his other videos; he does a nice job. One of them addresses his gear.

 

[OffCenter]

OUCH! That looked like it hurt

 

[TangoWhiskey]

Excellent job by all involved. Very good CRM, both in aircraft and by wingmen. Couldn't ask for a better outcome.

P.S.--And the reason for the concern about the APU and hydrazine at the end of the landing...

A-6 Intruder experiences a partial ejection of the B/N. Lands back aboard with the B/N sitting on top of the aircraft and his chute can be seen wrapped around the empennage!

Stop, then take off again, just like you would in the dark or in a conventional gear plane

Oddly enough, "Break off tail" was in the Remarks section of his flight plan.

No mistakes, but glad this was caught on video:

Not a problem... Just a CAP training mission... Give them about 10 months and the "incident" will disappear from the records.:wink2::wink2:

Move along... nothing to see here..

Amazing story. Very interesting to read the pilot's thoughts and reactions.

 

[TangoWhiskey]

Caught on audio is good, too. Here's the colorful conversation and topics some pilots have while flying. Stuck mike for about 8 1/2 minutes on BOS center freq 4 days ago (forward to 3:00 into the feed; runs til about 11:20). At 9:40, the pilot remarks how "it's been f*****' quiet on this frequency, like nothing's going on up here".

 

[matthammer]

I had a stuck mic once for a minute or two without realizing it. It's been SOP for me to make sure the little transmit light goes off when I let go of the PTT switch ever since. Easy way to avoid embarrassment.

 

[TangoWhiskey]

Whew!!! Talk about cutting it close. Check out this new "Real Pilot Stories" from AOPA's Air Safety Foundation:

Yikes. Reminds me of an incident during a recurrency jump I had. After exiting the aircraft and my count to four, I felt my chute open so began to check my canopy and gain control, only to see my reserve had somehow deployed into another paratrooper's main lift web. We see-sawed our way down slipping away as best we could. It was the longest 800 feet I have ever desended. Fortunately, neither of us were seriously hurt, but we both landed pretty hard.

Actually, it was a Nissan Navarra, in Russia, February of this year.

I believe an informal rule for this thread is to generally post videos not involving fatalities. And aviation related if possible.

 

[Henning]

What was that noise in the 182RG? Was that the gear horn?

Yep, I think that wasn't an accident though, the way the reactions went on touch down I think they knew they were bellying in.

The guy in that video is actually a really good pilot. He frequents another board I do, and is one of the 2 people I would fly in a Cirrus with.

OOPS! Sorry... I didn't get the memo...

 

[Henning]

Do you mean as they taxied back to the runway? Does the phrase "Go around" not exist in their vocabulary?

Mooney drivers, they're cheap on everything including thought, that's why they buy Mooneys. Dude was still over the tops of the trees crossing the threshold and he was doing the "carry extra speed for crosswinds & gusts" thing when it it's not necessary if you're dropping into a deep slot in the trees to land.

 

[Threefingeredjack]

So you invite your buddy along to sit in the back and he records and uploads your gear down mistake to the internet.
With friends like this, who needs enemas?[/QUOTE]

Ummmmmmm Here you see the advantages of the "sterile cockpit" concept. If he hadn't ben talking he might have noticed the BEEPING of the landing gear warning!!!!

Again, I don't think so, the entire thing is too purposeful and at the end he he even gives the plane a pat.

To me, that looks more like a "I can't believe I did that" PAT

Having applied both types of pats on many dash boards in my life, I'd say that's a "thanks, sorry". "I can't believe I just f-ing did that!" is invariably represented by a pounding fist.
