i'm thinkin and the only thing i can come up with is they got damn good noise cancelling headsets and they're forgot they're flying an RG. thats the only thing i can think of.
@incidlt no, this would have caused extensive damage to the aircraft, at bare minimum they would have had fuselage and structural damage, I didn't see a prop strike, but if there was, the engine would most probably been replaced or at least removed and extensively tested. This looks like a plain and simple mistake on the part of the pilots the beeping sounds like a gear warning, if they had had a gear failure they would have shut down the engine and feathered the prop (to stop it spinning) to p
The landing gear warning happens when ever your motor goes below a certain rpm (depending on the plane) and your gear is still up. it can come on at really random times so it gets to become just like back ground noise, you forget its on.
landing gear warning horn beeping and you and failure to read before landing checklist and you still land gear up. You are an idiot of a pilot, I hope you never fly again.
@Bergstaller01 If that was true, they would have shut down the engine short final because if the engine is still on, it takes a lot more damage from a prop strike than if it was shut down. Second, you can pull the circuit breaker and shut off the alarm if you know the alarm/landing gear are U/S.
It's very unlikely that they forgot the gear, especially with the blaring configuration warning. Come on get real. Where's the source for this video? The real story? I suspect that this was the result of a mechanical failure and the pilot had no choice.
@Arrowhead2k1 If this was the result of a mechanical failure and the gear-up was anticipated, then the pilot should have shut down the fuel flow, and the door should have been opened before touchdown. Noise cancelling headphones, combined with poor cockpit discipline could have caused them to miss the gear horn.
@CounterCultureLives I still don't really buy it. They appeared to make an emergency short final wihch indicates a problem (Either that or they were simulating an engine failure). Your theory is sound though, and such a thing could have very well happened. It's hard to accurately assess the situation from this video alone however. So again, where's the REAL story or incident report?
@Arrowhead2k1 They do, in fact, appear to be making an emergency short final. I suppose they might have been simulating an engine failure, but they wouldn't deliberately leave the gear up and damage the plane in the name of a training exercise. (unless they were training to become JetBlue or Colgan pilots!! ;o) ) So, if this was a training exercise, there were still factors of pilot error. On the other hand, if this was a genuine emergency, there were still factors of pilot error.
I think these guys were practising a forced landing after an engine failure and got so used to the gear horn going and were concentrating so hard on positioning the aircraft for the landing that they just plain forgot to dangle the Dunlops at the appropriate time.
I am thinking this has been a staged wheels up landing. I can understand maybe forgetting if you were IFR in bad weather conditions but the pilots don't seem to be shocked when they hit the ground.
Neither they had hydraulic issues nor gear malfunction. I think those pilots do not know what CRM is. And please don't think CRM is only useful for big airliners: This stupid and really embarrassing situation is only because of a bad CRM, or even a NO CRM.
Let's see the gear horn is going off, NO GUMPS CHECK!!!! TOTAL DUMB ASS WHO DOESN'T NEED TO BE IN THE LEFT SEAT WITH AN INCOMPOTENT INSTRUCTOR!!!!! MORONS!
@navyocs --there is NO EXCUSE for a gear up landing. SERIOUSLY!!!! Are you the MORON flying it or did I just tell you the TRUTH about your so called flying skills Moron.
@AcepilotC172 well how about a gear malfunction. if you loose the pressure in the lines, then you wouldn't even be able to hand pump the gear down, but the gear warning horn would still be going off because of the flaps and the manifold pressure. wow what an ace pilot you are, NOT!!!
@navyocs More then likely the cause of the loss of pressure is because the hydraulic fluid was low or even out. Per the POH on the airplane, the PIC is responsible to check to see how much hydraulic fluid is in the hydraulic fluid resivour. So again, IT IS STILL PILOT ERROR because of failure to perform a required pre-flight check on the aircraft.
@AcepilotC172 well from my experience things don't always happen per the POH, and also the hydraulic fluid resivoir is only required to be checked every 25 hours. yes it is pilot error and it probably was a stupid ass bunch of pilots that landed this thing gear up. however there is always a side of a story that you don't know so maby you shouldn't be so judgmental. i'm pretty sure that you could forget the gear too, after doing a steep spiral and the horn has been sounding for five minutes.
@lodragon25 ??? I doubt that reflects intelligence. Leave those comments to pilots! Lol. If you notice they are talking about what seems to be something that has nothing to do with the flight, not to mention there's a freaking gear horn blaring.
@lodragon25 ??? I doubt that reflects intelligence. Leave those comments to pilots! Lol. If you notice they are talking about what seems to be something that has nothing to do with the flight, not to mention there's a freaking gear horn blaring... THAT'S what reflects intellect.
the wheels up horn was going off too!!! LOL neither of them caught it!
i guess i can understand that though. whenever you are in a reduced power setting, the horn goes off, so maybe they were so used to hearing it, it didn't mean anything to them.
@marcumb Why do youtube know it all teenagers always say "FAKE!!" at anything that does not seem normal. How did you come to this conclusion, genius? Since we "as" so "gullable" then explain it to us, rather than just throwing around misspelled unsubstantiated words.
The BEEP BEEP is the gear up warning horn that comes on when the throttle is pulled back and the landing gear is not down. There are only two kinds of pilots, those who have landed gear up, and those who will land gear up someday.
Not fake. Prop strike happened before you heard the scraping after which the camera panned back to the right. I was at the FAA seminar where the pilots explained how this happened - cockpit distractions after a disruption in the normal landing routine. If you'r not a pilot, you don't know how much is going on during an approach to landing - no excuse for this kind of mistake (they clearly tuned out the warnig horn), but it does happen.
@PilotFishBob You heard from the actual pilots that this was not a planned gear-up, i.e. a gear malfunction? They were surprised due to their error? Looks like they were approaching very high - were they doing an engine-out exercise and that was the distraction that got them?
Yes, it was an FAA Safety seminar. It was a biennial review, I think - guy on right is an instructor. They were concentrating on landing exactly on a pre-determined spot and managed to tune out the horn - amazing what can happen if you get fixated. There original youtube posting with a comment from the vidographer is K4QHpVXtxI.
A little more attention to the task at hand and less cockpit chatter may have helped a bit. I'll bet going back the next morning to find your gloves is not so important now. BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
looked like a high approach and im glad i didnt fly with them. I ALWAYS go over checklists. Well, this is a good example of how to get your license taken away haha.
Might be stuck? I didn't hear the pilot going over the landing checklist. If he new the gear was stuck, he would be on the radio telling the tower to get the crash truck in place. I fly C-182s with the Civil Air Patrol and we stress SITUATIONAL AWARENESS in the cockpit. there was no situational awareness in this cockpit. The proof is when the pilot slaps the dash at the end of the clip - "gee, I could have had a V-8" (from the V-8 juice commercial)
He was in ciruit practicing landings. He was leaving the gear down but on the previous landing he put it up out of habbit and forgot about it, didn't check for 3 green and crashed.
The original video is elsewhere on youtube "accidental gear up in a cessna 182" The pilot didnt have the guts to post it. A friend of the cameraman in the back seat did.
Based on the info in the original video, I looked for this incident on ntsb website to read the report. Didnt find any record that this was reported if his info was correct.
@Bergstaller01 yeah but you pull the mixture right before touchdown to get the prop to stop spinning so it does not kill the prop and make the aircraft even harder to control.
As humiliating as this must be for the poor guy who was PIC during this flight, I am glad he had the guts to post it. This is wonderful reminder of why you want to check for three on the tree before impact! You don't wish this on anyone.
That's what I thought. But then they're really retarded. Muuhhh?? There's a beeping noise but I'm gonna keep landing anyway and maybe if I ignore it'll go away. *cross eyed*
@Bergstaller01 The beeping is because he has put down a certain amount of flaps or has pulled back a certain amount of engine rpm(depends on the aircraft) and the aircraft thinks it is landing and is trying to warn the pilot. In their defense when you do a steep spiral manuever where the horn is sounding for several minutes you forget it is there and can make a mistake. I love how he smacks the dash at the end though"oh shit!"
