"And so concludes our field test for the new high-tensile moon-noodle nanosteel landing gear"

But no really, that was ridiculous.

Some of the tailwind entries are insane, especially the Concord that calls it off.

That could have turned out so very differently, freaky!

That was impressive!

But perhaps not as impressive as this one, well not to watch at least, bloody awesome!

it's photoshopped. ;) ;)
it was a viral commercial campaign, went over a pair of years ago, i think...

but this was true...

then i clearly remember an aerobatic prize titled to a pilot that was almost losing his wing, so he flown all the way upside down not to expose the damaged wing to positive gs, and at the very last he turned and landed safely, leaving a scratch into the ground with the wing tip long some hundred of meters.
unfortunately i don't remember the name of the pilot or the name of the prize: i just remember that the cup was representing a plan touching the ground with the wing and that probably the plane was a zlin, or maybe an extra.
if somebody finds something on the net about that please post here... :niceone: :niceone:

[Pussy]

Any landing you can walk away from, especially if the aeroplane can be re-used, is a GOOD one! :niceone:

[Urano]

Spoilsport ! Viral commercial ?

:laugh:
sorry...
maybe "viral commercial" is not the right locution in english... i meant those videos diffused on the net in the hope of sensational responses but they were actually a commercial spot.
something like this one:

but often is something more subtle...

about the plane vid, here an article talkin about it (translated):

The way I heard it was that any landing you can walk away from is a good one - being able to re-use the aircraft is a bonus.

Can you say "windshear on short final"?

[CookMySock]

Any landing you can walk away from, especially if the aeroplane can be re-used, is a GOOD one! :niceone:Especially if you DO NOT want to be in the plane any more. Bad weather, nowhere to go, frightened and overloaded pilot? Bash the fucker on the ground and walk away from it - alive!

I used to fly in those BAe146's from City Airport (that where this is) to Dublin with Air Fungus...must be something to do with the conditions landing there because I had one particularly heavy landing which caused the oxygen masks to drop...

if somebody finds something on the net about that please post here... :niceone: :niceone:Neil Williams in the UK flying a Zlin - the main spar snapped at the attachment point and he flew upside down to just before he "landed", then flicked the plane over and slammed it onto the ground. He was killed a few years later in a Casa 111 crash, I think. Report here http://www.aerobatics.org.uk/repeats/zlin_wing_failure.htm
There was a photo of the plane in his book "Aerobatics".
There is an Aerobatics trophy named after him - "The Neil Williams Trophy" presented to the British Unlimited aerobatics champion in his memory.

The same plane earlier during a display http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r231/thawes/LowPass3.jpg

I believe he heard it crack and go soft. Pretty fucking brave, but what other choice was there!
