He made it look easy.
Thanks to Brian for sharing his experience with us!!
m no expert but played lot of video games in 90’s …i think if u keep ur nerves under control and make 270 degree turn before touch down lot of damage can be avoided…
@Joe Mcwade yup, and I won’t repeat what was said.
@David Jones it wasn’t ruled “negligence” so you missing context. I was flying under shelf and just above pattern. I don’t “owe” you anything but I shared the video to assist folks with emergency planning and procedures. It was ruled I did everything I should’ve or could’ve…with the exception of getting fuel but there wasn’t a need based on flying it prior with instructor and flight plan was perfect as well. In the end, they made it an “occurrence” and believe it was leaking. My pre-flight was full and I visually touched and saw fuel just below cap. In fact, have a photo of that and sms sent to my instructor that day. So please feel free to do the same at 850 AGL and then let’s talk. It seems for some pilots the only thing they can agree on is what the other pilot did wrong.
Such a smooth landing wow
You can see he was shaking and scared but had a great landing regardless
Amazing job by the student pilot. He’ll make a great one.
He already is, really 😀
@The Rolling Troll You’re not wrong.
You can sort of imagine what was really going through his mind yet his training kicked in to keep the situation calm and controlled. Very well done.
Way to go kid!!!!
Student Pilot: Totally calm
Me: “OMG, Tower I‘ve lost the &@$&!? engine! I’m going down!”
I always wonder…. what other choice do you really have? Hate to sound cliche but you the master of your own destiny at that point. Throwing your hands in the air isn’t really an option. Nerves are nerves and sometimes they just give up but you just gotta try anything at this point.
You can see the stress on his shaking hands, still acted soo cool. If I’m half as cool in an emergency I’ll be good.
[RPM to zero!]
Pilot: sweats internally
@Dan G gotta dump those extra fuel
Yay, zero means time to action!
Yeah it’s not a fun feeling. There’s definitely a second or two of you staring at your hand on the throttle, seeing and feeling that it’s fully forward, but hearing the RPMs go to zero and your brain just goes: huh…um…er…what…but but it’s fully forward *press it in a little more firmly*… Then the realization all kicks in at once and your training takes over. But that first moment is like a surreal out of body experience because nothing makes sense.
That’s what the fan in front is for. When it stops spinning the pilot starts to sweat.
The Boy done good. Looks like he paid attention to those “engine out drills”. Now he has taught others.
Butter, even with no engine and in a field
cool if you are so knowledgeable then share you facts with us instead of just being a prick
@Sussy ass motherfucka No, in that situation the landing he performed was pretty damn perfect. Don’t be such a prick.
@elo philer he’s just some silly teen with a silly name and a silly avatar posting a silly immature comment on youtube
@Exciter Usually having the engine running allows you to land where you intend to with a proper glide slope.
The sound of an engine dying in a single engine aircraft that close to the ground is utterly terrifying. Yet this man did everything he needed to survive and get the help he needed after landing… which he did flawlessly. Like Larry said below my comment, that’s not a student, hell that’s not even a pilot, that’s an aviator.
Great comment.
You couldn’t nail a plank between his cheeks with a sledgehammer
Said another way, “his sphincter was so tight, you couldn’t pull a pin out of his butt with a tractor.”
Seat cushion has bite marks
Not even a toothpick
Couldnt pull a pin from his ass with a john deere tractor
As soon as that engine cut out completely his cheeks clenched so quick he coulda caught a katana with them
The in-flight entertainment was a little sub-par… but the peanuts were nice.
