@bobobiggalo question was for huey187. He stated that for legal purposes the plane had to touch down before the divers did. Im not a dickhole shooting down your vid. I think is cool and I thank you for sharing.
I used to look over and see the 182 in freefall with us regularly in Tahlequah Ok in the 80's , Bob Shafer did it with his LOadstar. Our otter drivers were always to conservative to try back then .
Hahaha....this thread is so funny! No you do not see this often, and it's pretty cool.... And you're all assholes with opinions, just like me! Thanks for the comedy routine!
i had this once, while i was still in it, blind pilot... i was the last one to jump out, and that son of a bitch started his descent, so i screamed to him to wait... leveled out again and i jumped out, i was like wtf? and i saw him doing this descent when i was freefalling, great jump though!
Aye! At Gold Coast Skydivers in MS we do this! Like to get down before the jumpers do, gives them more time to play around without worrying about where the Twotter is.
@AviationHobby Nope,you really dont huh? lol I have been lucky to see it a few dozen times,but not for a few years now! I ended up with some great video to watch for ever now. Thanx for watching and for your comment! Blue SKies!
@yynnmmbb wow.hey a-hole! thanx for making it apparent that it is something that you see everyday,and everyone has it on video.Oh wait a minute! it doesn't and i don't see it everywhere.So just because you didn't get it,you have to be a dick? thanx for sharing! crawl back in your hole! You fuck! Really? people? you just cant move the fuck on when you dont like something? you just cant shut your fucking mouth and move the fuck on? assface! Thanx fag! move on to hell where you belong!
@bobobiggalo , Listen you crust nuts dolt; If you don't ever want to hear an opinion that is different than yours, don't post a video with a question attached ... "Ever c an airplane do this ? " Yes, we have moron. I really wish idiots like you didn't have a YouTube account. You are making it quite a boring place.
@yynnmmbb well,you are kind of a dickhole yourself.and for you to have an opinion is not that big of a deal. Because im sure you have many opinions that people don't care to hear. Grab a life while your out looking for the parents that shit you out! then think before you speak next time. Assholes are like opinions,everyones got one! but remember the next time before you speak that if ya ain't got something nice to say,dont say it at all. really?
@bobobiggalo That assholes and opinions thing is a glaring mixed metaphor. Are you criticizing him for having an opinion, being an asshole or having an asshole? Not that it's a "big deal" or anything.
Skydiver want pilots to fly as slow as possible, so they putt all the flaps out pull the throttle nearly to 0. when sthe skydivers jump, pilot takes the flaps all in at ouns to save fuel and the plans goes in to a stall and makes a noes dive
@generallunadickieken u have no idea what u r talking about.... the plane doesnt go into a stall the pilot puts it into a nose dive to save fuel on the ride down
@laxnski12 for me pulling the throttle to 0 and provocing a stall to save fuel seems more logical. And by the way I have a PPL and flown for a skydiving team in a short skyvan doing the same thing.
@generallunadickieken You don't pull it to zero and provoke a stall if you want to save fuel..... Max endurance is minimum power required for level flight. Look on your Lift/Thrust chart it will be not much higher on the thrust curve than max range.
This has nothing to do with g-load or anything else and can be done by any trained pilot.
If throttle is pulled back, the props are working as giant airbrakes and the maximum speed of the Otter is 150% of the speed the skydivers are falling at.
Well,all i can say is that it is somewhere in florida.And the pilots have to have multi-engine experience,and not willing to make money doing it.And i will also add that not all pilots can do this and get away with it.
Met a fed a year ago that was doing a line check at a field and saw someone do this... He said it was sad to cite the guy, but had to. The plane the guy was using for the maneuvers was not rated for the rolls. Not exactly the same thing as here, but the guy was not aerobatic cert...
There's no "magnitude" of difference.. This isn't that huge of an infraction . The plane was empty, no passengers, not endangering people on the ground, the only danger is to himself and the airplane for practicing aerobatics. I'd say he paid his $1000 fine and went on without a hickup... Anyone notice it's always $1000?? I don't know where they got that number from but all infractions are roughly that amount.
The guy I was talking about, did not have ratings to do what he was doing, nor was the plane rated for it. No passengers aboard. Unless that Fed was lying...
That's true. A good pilot is taxiing down the runway as the last jumpers are landing. My friend and I had the priveledge to ride a twin otter down after the jumpers exited (with our rigs on just in case) and after the fast dive the pilot swooped into a parabola and we enjoyed about 10 seconds of a zero gravity flight. Great fun, you should try it if the pilot agrees to do so.
Did a tandem jump a couple months ago - last jumper out - and I see the plane on landing roll a few seconds after my canopy opened. Now I know how he did it. Neat!
This rapid pushover maneuver is totally safe and alot of fun. The good turbine jump pilots will drop the power immediately to idle after the last stick exits and crank the yoke with full left aileron deflection, pegging the VSI and diving until they reach a respectable airspeed of close to 180, depending on how brave they are. If they're on it, they can watch and pass the jumpers up, out the left window.
But it seems he crosses the skydivers flight path. From watching it twice it looks a bit furious...but if the pilot doesn´t screw his headings then a 160 or 170 degree turn makes that possible..yet dangerous.....whatever dangerous ever stands for in that sport (pilot&skydiver) :))
No overspeed. Skydivers only fall about 110-120 mph, so the plane can easily pass them. There are no negative G's or excessive G's in the pullout. Not a big deal, just not many pilots are used to flying like that. I've seen it done plenty of times. You don't make money hanging around at 13,000 feet after the last skydiver leaves. ;-P
Been on a binned load because low cloud just rolled in when we got to altiude, the pilot did that on the way down,landing in the plane is shit!! pilots love a boot full of screaming skydivers! ....and yes not ashamed to say I screamed, have'nt got many jumps!!
Landing in a perfectly good airplane is shit! I wouldn't mind riding it for the actual wingover but let me out before we land please! This was taken in Lakewales about 3 or 4 years ago. Goodtimes! Say hi to Jim and Lee! And flip Jim the bird!
Yeah. See it all the time with a porter and a pac on most jumps. Especially if your the last to exit.Tandems usually get the great video shots of this with the sun going down behind. Just need to ask the pilot and cameraman first. They usually aim to please.Mad mob really. Wing overs when still inside a porter are superb. Made a girly skydiver cry on one load. Wont say where though. We like our pilot to much - hes fu***n crazy. Blue skies
Never heard of a pilot closeable rear door. He slows the engines way down as or bfore he noses over,so he doesn't really gain a whloe lot of speed. He's an excellent pilot! I have a lot of great footage with him flying.
