The pilot was feeling intimidated because the Blue angel pilots were there, so he threw in this bad ass landing and was thinking "beat that blue angel guys".
@Robbob9933 I was wondering about that; there is an actual procedure for that? I thought it was just lucky/talented last-minute decision making on the aviator's part.
one day i saw a jet come by and i took a rope and lassoed it so far into the sky that the nose of jet caught on to it and i was drag a least 10 miles....true story
@USAF2409 It will be a long shot for either team to use the F-35 anytime soon but if they do switch in my life time i say the Thunderbirds should use the F-22 and the F-35 go to the Blue Angels but with the high cost it's a big long shot.
@nascarwinner1 Thanks for clearing that up, I don't believe the Blue Angles use Supers Hornets but the one that spin out is definitely a Super Hornet.
@Daywalkertwentyseven the blue angels don't do all of the manuevers that the F-18 can perform. they do alot of them but not all of them. and this was a F-18F which flies differently... I think since it's bigger and has more engine power.
DON'T READ THIS!In 1971 a guy named Kyle and his girlfriend Emily were in side a house that was said to claim peoples lives if they entered the house.The next morning a guy named Alex saw fingernail marks on the door.if you dont post this to 5 videos, you'll be getting a visit from Kyle and Emily tonight!WARNING:this has been proved to be real,i value my life!whoever reads this may God be with you! I TRULY DO APOLOGIZE!!! PS i got this from another vid
Matt Bernhard (RIO) is my bro. he said that was the scariest thing that has ever happened to him. The pilot almost ejected with him for fear the engine had caught fire.
i was there!!!!! haha...and all those people saying it was part of the demo.... ive been to every airshow for the past 12 years... and thts the only time its ever happend
The commentator has done more then his fair share of airshows. I think he kept a quite good amount of wits about him feeding the audience that BS about "swinging it around". Big props to him, and to the eventual hours from the maintenance crew ripping the brake disc assembly off the axle.
What will happen to you when you die? Have you ever told lies, stolen, used God's name in vain, or looked at someone with lust? If yes, then you are a lying, theiving, blasphemous, adulterer at heart. When you die & stand before God you'll be guilty of breaking His law. The bible says you'll end up in Hell! But God sent God his Son Jesus to die for your sins, & He rose from the dead on the third day. If you'll believe the Gospel(Jesus died for your sins & was resurrected) you'll be saved!
@asre2001 I think what they were saying is that the bare metal is less likely to spark, get super hot because of friction and ignite when its digging into grass and dirt...much less friction than the runway surface.
that was an instructor pilot, and a trainee. VFA106 gladiators, are the east coast F18 training squadron. so the pilot in charge knew what the hell to do, and when to do it. good job hornet pilots.
Actually this is a real manuver, Ive seen it done before when a legacy hornet that had an incident. I dont know why they do it but i think they want to get the wheels in the grass a quickly as possible since they are made of magnesium and are very hard to put out when they catch on fire.
@asre2001 Dude are you serious!?!? Please make sure you dont sound like an absolute dumb-ass before trying to make a smart comment. Magnesium creates its own oxygen while burning so water wont put it out, look it up. AFFF is used to put out those fires. Also please make sure you are confident that i dont know what i am talking about, because i used to be an F-18 mech.
@PsuPepperoni well its better then being like "Ladies and gentleman!, This pilot blew his tyre, There is a Very good chance this f18 could Burst into flames and send Jet fuel your way!," or somthing :P
@robertsja9999 fucking people like you should go to hell. Hatred throwing peices of shit like you need tolearn that your bullshit leads to pointless deaths, battles, wars, and more. I really just want to take my jungle boot off and slap you silly across the head. Our BIA's in Britan love us, has we love them.
@robertsja9999 I ain't watching hatred filled videos. Its bullshit. All you need is to learn that you insult a nation that constantly tries to help others blindly because you got absolutely no fuckin intelligence. Its always about how bad America is with you people. I love my country. Nuff' said, you are grabassitic scum bag who needs to stop hating americans
@robertsja9999 fuck you hatred spewing asswipe. If we didn't help the Iraqi's take down saddam, shoot all of the taliban, al qaeda, and jihadist, kids wouldn't live, women would be raped and killed and men would be forced to fight or die. We are not perfect by any means, but we try. But I know, there is always some sny comment to be made about known mistakes, like they were done on perpous.
@lolanubislol Hey fuckface! Can't you tell i was joking about the "flex capacitor". It's called sarcasm you dickhead! Actually that particular plane blew a tire while landing, look it up! You humorless bastard!
i was there when that happened they werent planning the tire pop but played it off anyways to demonstrate saftey and what not with the plane they left there for the rest of the show
seems like he applied the brake too hard, he is lucky the brake did not caugt fire like the one we had in iraq, they should make that pilot work with the airframers and fix that main mount.
@JamesBrouillard airframers are the mechanichs that fix hydraulics and pretty much the skin of the aircraft, in the navy the plane is called airframe, the main mounts are the landing gears in the back.
@202000cabs dunno if its changed since I left in 83 but AMS is structural and AMH is hydraulics and the guys in line division change the tires. I was an AQ (fire control now combined with AT) with PQS in radar and fire control (F-4N and S) as well as plane captain after TAD in line division as well as corrosion control for AMS so I could yank panels for fire control computers so the AMS shop didn't have to stay late for us. (VF-21, CV-43)
I was at this air show, and I'm pretty sure that the pilots did not intend for this to happen, because you know it is sooooo easy to make a tire blow on command (for all you skeptics).
In my opinion, the brake was locked on that wheel. The pilot may not have even known it until touchdown. When the brake locks, the tire rapidly blows since it can't rotate. And since the tire is now gone with a locked brake, at slow speeds the aircraft will rotate around that wheel and spin to a stop (like it did in the end frames). Hopefully there will not be a brake fire, since everything gets pretty hot with all this happening.
The announcer said everything AS it was happening not after meaning the pilot did everything according to protocol. I would assume that almost every situation has a trained sequence of events. And i'm sure a flat tire falls into that category. But i'm not a pilot and assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups.
lol i love how the announcer thinks that's what they were trying to do...that was an emergency situation the airplane almost damaged its million dollar engines...don't think the pentagon would've appreciated that much =P
Rob Reider is a professional, and a pilot himself. So no, he knows that's not what they were trying to do... he's just trying to remain calm for the audience. They seemed to be calm enough as it was anyway... I actually heard a few idiots laughing. Oh yeah... that was the funniest thing I've ever seen. Blown tires always make me laugh. Morons.
Yeah its funny how he plays it off as normal but you know the announcer doesnt think thats what they are trying to do, the announcer is an active duty FA/18 pilot too
Land-based military airfields operating fighter or jet trainer aircraft also use arresting gear systems, although they are not required for all landings. Instead, they are used for landing aircraft on short or temporary runways, or for emergencies involving brake failure, steering problems or other situations in which using the full length of the runway is not possible or safe. Permanent systems are installed on nearly all U.S. military airfields operating fighter or jet trainer aircraft.
Look at the tire at 0:03 its flat. No way this was done on purpose. I wonder what the pilots pucker factor was though. And why didn't he catch the wire?
So if he didn't know the tire was "FUBAR" then how was the announcer able to dictate the entire event to the crowd. The pilot obviously knew about the situation or the announcer wouldn't have been saying anything besides "OK this guys landing wow look at that."
Kesmit100, you should be ashamed of yourself..why would it be a Muslim terrorist? F18 in the Quran is the chapter that talks about Mohammed and his flying Arabian stallion. Muslims invented flight many years before the Wright Brothers ever left the ground. Islam is the best religion in the world!!!! All you people will come to love it once your all living in the stone ages again.
Okay, you STUPID dumasses....This was a demo of a extreme short runway landing, and the pilot landed with locked tiers, and slided to stop faster....God you stupid people shoulh not talk about things you dont know!!!
false. This was a malfunction. The military never intentionally threatens to damage its multi million dollar aircraft at airshows. This was an emergency that was handled smoothly by the pilot. And next time you intend to insult others you should do a grammar check so you don't make a fool out of yourself.

In my opinion, the brake was locked on that wheel. The pilot may not have even known it until touchdown. When the brake locks, the tire rapidly blows since it can't rotate. And since the tire is now gone with a locked brake, at slow speeds the aircraft will rotate around that wheel and spin to a stop (like it did in the end frames). Hopefully there will not be a brake fire, since everything gets pretty hot with all this happening.

The announcer said everything AS it was happening not after meaning the pilot did everything according to protocol. I would assume that almost every situation has a trained sequence of events. And i'm sure a flat tire falls into that category. But i'm not a pilot and assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups.

Rob Reider is a professional, and a pilot himself. So no, he knows that's not what they were trying to do... he's just trying to remain calm for the audience. They seemed to be calm enough as it was anyway... I actually heard a few idiots laughing. Oh yeah... that was the funniest thing I've ever seen. Blown tires always make me laugh. Morons.

You mean the wire that is only on aircraft carriers not runways...

Land-based military airfields operating fighter or jet trainer aircraft also use arresting gear systems, although they are not required for all landings. Instead, they are used for landing aircraft on short or temporary runways, or for emergencies involving brake failure, steering problems or other situations in which using the full length of the runway is not possible or safe. Permanent systems are installed on nearly all U.S. military airfields operating fighter or jet trainer aircraft.

Look at the tire at 0:03 its flat. No way this was done on purpose. I wonder what the pilots pucker factor was though. And why didn't he catch the wire?

Because he didn't know the tire was FUBAR until he landed. :p

So if he didn't know the tire was "FUBAR" then how was the announcer able to dictate the entire event to the crowd. The pilot obviously knew about the situation or the announcer wouldn't have been saying anything besides "OK this guys landing wow look at that."

Kesmit100, you should be ashamed of yourself..why would it be a Muslim terrorist? F18 in the Quran is the chapter that talks about Mohammed and his flying Arabian stallion. Muslims invented flight many years before the Wright Brothers ever left the ground. Islam is the best religion in the world!!!! All you people will come to love it once your all living in the stone ages again.

Okay, you STUPID dumasses....This was a demo of a extreme short runway landing, and the pilot landed with locked tiers, and slided to stop faster....God you stupid people shoulh not talk about things you dont know!!!

false. This was a malfunction. The military never intentionally threatens to damage its multi million dollar aircraft at airshows. This was an emergency that was handled smoothly by the pilot. And next time you intend to insult others you should do a grammar check so you don't make a fool out of yourself.
