If you want to see some STOL takeoffs/landings go to the General Aviation section, the 3rd, 4th, 5th from the bottom, Supercub takeoffs and landings. Awesome! Can you land a Supercub in 18 feet?

Can you land a Supercub in 18 feet?

Nick

Sure. Once.



Does the plane have to be reuseable to count?

NPloysa,thanks for the link. Good stuff.

Here's two videos I recently put together from some footage taken up the Knik River.

Thanks Crazy Horse! Nice videos. Did the 1st one's Cessna land across the river and take off on the same side as your truck? That's what it looks like to me!



Nick

 

[NPloysa]

Sure. Once.



Does the plane have to be reuseable to count?

Yes, uncontrolled landings count!

 

[Crazy Horse]

He did a "touch n go" on the other side of the river an then landed over by us next to the truck.



Nice guy he was about 65 yrs old, shared a pepsi with him and he was on his way again.

I saw a Cessna 310 that landed in 30' next to a hanger I used to work at. I'm not sure that "landing" is the correct term though.

Last fall I got the DVD Big Rocks & Long Props. Super Cub & a Maule did take offs & landings that will blow your mind. If you've ever seen Super Cub Hardcore, well this new video makes the Hardcore video seem like a documentary of a student X-country solo.



Not a movie you want to watch before you go flying.



Wish I could see the videos but I'm on a dial up modem.

 

[NPloysa]

That site I linked has a couple clips from the site who sells the Big Rocks and Long Props video, I forget the name. Let me see if I can find it!



Anyway, on the link I posted, in the General Aviation section, by the short takeoffs links, there is a website link for them. www.akbushwheel.com The clip is a shorter version of the longer version on that site.



Cummins Pilot, where did you purchase the video? The akbushwheel.com site had clips but I don't see where to buy the whole DVD.

I like the RC stuff. The crashes compilation and the Spectactular Demo Flight are pretty cool.

 

[AMink]

Thanks for posting that site. I was up VERY late last night watching videos. The SU30 video is astounding! That pilot either has really big ones, or is dumber than a box of rocks. My guess is he's not dumb! Great site!

Here you go! Enjoy!

Nick

I can't tell you how much time I've "wasted" on that site. If my boss only knew!

 

[Cummins Pilot]

My local aircraft parts dealer has the DVD. They call it Super Cub porn :-laf



I can't wait for the second DVD. At an aviation expo this last spring they (the pilots in the video) said it would better than the first.

Look at this engine starting up. Is this normal?

[Jim Fulmer]

Nice tail pipe fire, hope that is not normal... ..... looks like a nozzle issue, but continuing the start to blow the fire out is fine, it's either that or stop start and hope you can windmill the fire out.

[Jim Fulmer]

Maybe we can get Doug (Jet Pilot) on this one.



He and I both will say the same thing... ..... Terrain, Terrain, Terrain... ..... bet the box was B***ing hard on that one! Funny thing is all that and he landed short and did not de-crab enough... ... . would love to shoot that approach, but with only a few selected people!



Takeoff's, Landing... especially like that one and sightseeing are the only things i'm going to miss about flying!

This was on PBS a few years ago...

A documentary about the R & D on the Boeing 777.



They added ballast the the airbus, to get it up to 288 tons. Got it up to 210mph, then hit the binders. 9. 5 million Ft lbs of energy into the pads & rotors.



Note the White Hot rotors at points.

[Jim Fulmer]

Remember this idiot!



YouTube - Crazy Landing at Kai Tak!



Way over shoot, off centerline, too much rudder and not enough aileron and almost scraped the inboard motor... ... . can you say... ... . GO-AROUND!

This is NASTY, for those of you seeing this from only a cameras' view cannot even imagine how bad it looks in the plane... ... ... makes me want to go find the pilot and laugh, then hug him... ..... he has Ba*** of steel.
