No takeoff

[Berothsloth]

What happened to no weight on wheels??? Are They just not that sensitive or what?

[1SFODdelta]

Super kool russian engines can't even make aircraft climb with that angle of attack.

[evrolicious]

@1SFODdelta wrong, sir. the flankers can climb with an angle of attack of like nearly 90 degrees. angle of attack is what causes lift, but they cant make it climb at that airspeed ;)

[1SFODdelta]

@evrolicious 90 degrees?? you're saying complete bullshit, learn aerodynamics, and learn more about algle of attack, kid.

[evrolicious]

@1SFODdelta it was an exaggeration. the critical angle of attack of a su-27 is 33 degrees wich is waaaay higher than any other fighters. i know that this mig here wouldnt be able to pull that off, but i'm just pointing out that low airspeed is the culprit here. not AoA. oh and btw i've done plenty of studying long before you mentioned it...while i was in a real airplane...flying it. possibly something you'll never do B)

[1SFODdelta]

@evrolicious Flight NYC - Charlotte is really impossible thing...

[1SFODdelta]

@evrolicious BTW, critical AoA of Flanker is 20 degrees. If you saying whatever you want, talk is over

[crashz71]

@evrolicious umm hi... i just wanted to point out that AoA is determined by airspeed not the attitude of the aircraft. So when you say airspeed is the culprit not AoA, the slow airspeed actually increases the AoA. Just an observation.

[evrolicious]

@crashz71 What i'm trying to say is that without sufficient speed, the angle of attack won't matter. in this case, the pilot seems to have been trying to rotate prematurely (and without sufficient airspeed). Airspeed and Angle of attack are in a direct relationship. with less airspeed, the angle of attack necessary to provide sufficient lift increases. With higher airspeed, the angle of attack necessary to provide sufficient lift decreases. By the way the airspeed doesn't influence AoA.

[evrolicious]

@crashz71 AoA is strictly the angle formed by the oncoming air, and the wing. the speed of the oncoming air doesnt have anything to do with the actual angle. I hope i dont sound rude as i'm not trying to be, nor do i want anything more than just to make my point, and not upset anyone.

[crashz71]

@evrolicious As the plane starts to move the AoA is decreased until you are moving fast enough to reach the critical angle of attack which would be something between 10 and 20 degrees depending on the wing and then it would be possible to rotate. AoA can be much more complicated than that, but for basic flight take offs and landings AoA = Airspeed. And again im not upset or wanting anyone else to be upset, just interesting discussion.

[evrolicious]

@crashz71 i'm sorry, but you really couldnt be more wrong. do some research on the definition of AoA. it never changes unless the pitch of the aircraft, or the surface/shape of the wing changes. the critical angle of attack is the angle of attack at which an aircraft stalls, so not really sure what youre saying here. critical angle of atttack shouldnt be involved in any takeoff at all.

[crashz71]

@evrolicious Its the angle formed by the wing meeting the relative wind where the relative wind is always directly opposite of the direction of the airplanes travel. You can see how the AoA is changed by the airspeed by imagining an airplane sitting not moving on a runway. while it is sitting there its airspeed is 0 so if it were in the air it would fall straight down so the AoA is 90 degrees.

[evrolicious]

@crashz71 i disagree. if the aircraft is stationary, then there is no relative wind resulting in no angle of attack. once the aircraft is moving, the angle between the wing and the relative wind will remain constant regardless of how fast the relative wind is coming toward the wing until a change in pitch, or surface controls is applied.

[evrolicious]

@crashz71 if the aircraft while stationary has an angle of attack of 90 degrees then that means that the wing is providing lift at 0 airspeed! which would be impossible. :P

[Allanvh5150]

@evrolicious Stationary aircraft have a 0 degree angle of attack.

[evrolicious]

@Allanvh5150 there is no angle of attack if there is no oncoming wind. its not 0 degrees..it's nonexistent. i'm done with this discussion. come talk to me after your first day of ground school.

[Allanvh5150]

@evrolicious I am a few years past ground school, what I should have said was "a stationary aircraft has no angle of attack" i.e. zero.

[evrolicious]

@Allanvh5150 aaah okay. this is what i've been trying to point out though: wether the aircraft is stationary or moving..the angle of attack doesnt change without pitching up or down reguardless of the airspeed.

[crashz71]

@evrolicious sorry i dont want to sound rude either i just think AoA is one of the least understood concepts to pilots. it is almost as you say the angle formed by the oncoming air and the wing, but with one small difference.

[AdditivePlacebo]

@crashz71 Least understood? Angle of Attack is almost the FIRST thing you're going to be taught in any flight training class, period, and you're going to keep learning about it until you get your CFI. Airspeed can't change your Angle of Attack, the only thing it changes is less airspeed = less lift, which means you have to increase your AoA to maintain your elevation, which means you get closer to a stall. You're critical AoA won't change, though, whether your doing 50 knots or mach 1.

[zawlinmoe]

that's pretty cool

[422eng]

"look ma, I'm flying"

[balance521]

LUCY!!! You got some 'splanin' to do!

[bkeener86]

@mrflintstone lol i know i noticed that and burst into tears from laughing so damn hard like lmao what a newb

[Rickenbacker4001C64]

The Pilot was hastily hauled off behind the nearest hangar and shit... as he had just accidentally spent half of Russia's defense budget.

[MO4B]

not sukhoi it's a mig 29

[douek1]

imo int's not the matter of bringin in the landin gear to early, but the fault of the engine, that didn't allow the plane to take off...

[BadgemanDFW]

@douek1 The trouble here is a pilot must confirm a "positive rate of climb" (Usually by checking his vertical speed indicator) prior to gear retraction. But, this could have been an automation malfunction too.

[karl46]

Sukhoi Sledding

[lovepafchampion]

russian air technology  is shit

[beergut111]

@mrflintstone thats so the gear handle is down and he can claim the gear just collapsed.

I guess thats russian aviation for ya.

[micheledc]

positive rate ---->> GEAR UP!!!

idiot

[OWHSsoccer07]

RIGHT RUDDER, RIGHT RUDDER!!!

[steemy2]

Hmmm... he's having a bad day.

[SuburbAllied]

@mrflintstone I think he did that in order to break the speed, if he did that in order to raise the plane again he must be a fucking moron xD

[indyjons321]

Russian fail.

[RCShadow]

I agree with some of the other posts. Do the Russians not know what a squat switch is?? WTH?

[FanjitaUK2k8]

@RCShadow I think you'll find it has one, only the aircraft was generating enough lift to close the squat switch. Just wasnt making enough to take all the weight off the wheels, oops!

[wolf1010]

So this technologically advanced multimillion dollar military aircraft lets you retract the landing gear with WOW (weight on wheels)? Hmmm...

[r1cw]

someone tried to show off for the camera...

[TheUnNerved]

It'll buff out.

[graygray67r1]

Jwboll

Funny comment of the month. Give yourself a gold star.

[Racing600RR]

Oh my goood!!!! What was he thinking????

[Jathar2]

That is why I like American planes over russian planes. The FA-22 kicks the SU-27's buttocks.

[Mtk711s]

@Jathar2 Why?

[Jathar2]

@Mtk711s they're made better, and we have better technology.

[Mtk711s]

@Jathar2 First, it is partly your tech..,second -you are not better. :)

[Jathar2]

@Mtk711s oooohhhh, F-22's are so much better than anything made my Sukhoi

[Mtk711s]

@Jathar2 ohhh my F 22 is sucking `smth` cuz PAK FA:)

[Mtk711s]

@Jathar2 vice versa. U suck.

[jwboll]

premature retractulation

[chrimsilva]

defnitively russian...

[22896pv]

Nothing a little scratch remover and spray paint can't fix....she'll be flying in no time!

[SpaceAgeDiaper]

Lol, he tried to lower his gear.

[deejayedwards]

Haha @ russian pilots!

[jtp0321]

DOH! tard

[nocalsteve]

The pilot probably didn't pull up the gear, the gear handle was probably already up at the beginning of the take-off roll but the gear was locked down because of the weight-on-wheels switch. Once the plane got light on its wheels, the landing gear then retracted.

[samueldu]

@nocalsteve that make sense, but i dont know if you are able to put the gear up when you are in the ground, i mean, when the airplane knows that it is on the ground.

[nocalsteve]

@samueldu Exactly.  The landing gear can't retract as long as the gear legs are compressed by the weight of the airplane. Once the plane rotated up onto its rear wheels and the lift started to develop, the plane got light on its wheels and even a small bounce over a bump would cause the landing gear to retract. It's still pilot error because he should have made sure the landing gear handle was down before taking off.

[Thompoux]

EPIC FAIL

[EduEnYT]

and at 0:19 he lowers the gear again. That guy must've been drunk or something...

[seperath11510]

5$ says this guy got fired (or what ever that service does when they don't want you anymore)

[jyokid]

Fail. I definitely laughed when I saw him try to put them back down

[jetaddicted]

and now:the jet powered land mower

now available at mikoyan and gurevitch garden hardware factory

[thezorba1]

full power to taxi back to the flight line now I guess.....

[danetrain0101]

I guess this is why you have to confirm positive rate.

[monkeyman1140]

Looks like an engine power loss on takeoff.

[crawford331]

I'll bet the pilot moved the gear handle to the "up" position before applying takeoff power. This works provided the aircraft doesn't lose lift at liftoff - as this one did!

[EmperorAst]

Why did I bring them in so early? should he ask himself again and again!!!

[swedishvolvo]

Someone is not taking out the government jet anymore.

[AV8R4HM]

Oh, so that is the Americans mean when they say: Positive rate, gear up!

[redfox435cat]

Note to self: confirm positive climb rate and then hit gear switch

[logansGT]

Pilot to control tower: "Oh shit!"

[xpj67]

This would go good set to the song "Landslide" by Stevie Nicks lol

[vassili1987]

FAIL!!!

[AGrandt]

As good as that one with the French pilot who forgot to lower the gear before landing his fighter.

[xxitachixx007]

he pulled up the wheels early and the plane stalled

[goldridder]

Shame Maverick's mate died...he'd love to see this clip

[RobbieWright]

I would of thought it would of been,

1, take off

2. wheels up.

But I'm not a pilot so what would I know.

[EDWARDTAY55]

looks like he went mini trucking

[lhoggins]

ha unlucky:P

[thetrainguy125]

oh crap!

[slowtraveler]

Pilot error is that he was not checked position of landing gear lever before departure - It was put in 'GEAR UP' position.

Landing gear have 'load switch', which sense load on in.

This switch prevents moving of the landing gear position when taxiing despite of lever position.

It his case just before take off load on main gear decreases, which immediately triggered electronics to follow 'gear lever' position, which incidently was in UP position....

Things are much simple than someone expects :)

[no4go2]

thanks for the info on the landing gear system. never knew that but it makes sence to have somthing like that.

[GerbilEssences]

You can smell the roubles burning.

[goldridder]

LMFAO

[TheDepotCat]

Whoops...!!!

[jinglejim]

a lot of people talking out of their bottoms here so I will join in........... "It wasnt a mig 29, it was a jellyfish and the pilot fogot to get in and left it on autopilot"........... there how was that?

[foxtrot6X9]

NO, whats happening here is.....in airshows pilots tend to lift the gear early in takeoff , so this pilot is doing that thinking that the thrust of the plane will be enough to get the mig airborne as the -29 has a good thrust to weight ratio but it didn't so the plane hit the ground. I did a similar near miss in a sukhoi but made it airborne. thank god! =D

[lanasa8]

you are 17, stop lying you p0s

[foxtrot6X9]

I fly simulators dickhead

[SheebMaster]

OMFG U FLY SIMULATOR U SERIOUS?

gtfo and get a life, kiddo

[sladeD8]

Guys foxtrot uses flight simulater, hes pretty badass huh?

[innersilencedotcom]

it was a mig 29 in russia the pilot landed with the gear stuck inside the plane.

[DobeDobyDo]

Glad you are NOT a crash investigator. The plane had the gear down and was taking off. Pilot geared up, but didn't have enough lift to take-off and settled back on the runway.

Only the FAA is this clueless oh yeah, and you.

[cincye]

Hhhhhhmmmmmm, it's too snowy to be Mexico.....must be Russians then.

[hoogmonster]

Next time you drink Smirnoff and drive, think of this video...

[RedSkyHorizon]

I think by lowering the gear @20 he tried to increase the friction on the tarmac in order to help it slow down. He would have shut down the engines immeditly so no reverse thrust. Pilots aren't chosen to do this kinda work because they're good at flying, they're chosen because they make good decisions.

[deathgod646]

bet he feels stupid

[verdebusterAP]

okay

first he blows the take off

somebody forget to read the manual

pretty sure it's says at 250 knots at full burn

then he decided to further damage the plane by cycling the gear again

so instead just have to replace the panels on the engine nacelles ,now you have to also replace the gear and the engines , cause I pretty when he cycled the gear the bays door were chewed up and those engines were still turning

EPIC FAIL

[OMGitsCharliie]

at 0:20 he trys to put his wheels up again

[cvogel4]

he try to put them down

[LostOliven]

Um, didn't they teach their pilots that the aircraft should generally be airborne before raising the gears? :O

[yakovlev3a]

wow..... you can actually see the mig start to lift off then stall back onto the runway. I wonder how much it took to repair this fighter. Migs are notoriously rugged and easy to maintain or repair

[tomasmk]

From Pilot's Fact Book: you realize that the landing gear is up and locked when it takes full power to taxi to the terminal

[narutoidontknow]

slide weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!­!!!!

[ARKIEX]

thats a Mig-29...

[ATrueSriLankan]

Wow, there goes his flying carrier.

[Fendori]

u mean career

[ATrueSriLankan]

Thanks for pointing it out. (Humbly)

[jetengine7]

What's the rush for raising the landing gear??? Unless it was a malfunction that caused them to raise themselves...

[steiwher]

burn baby burn!

[MOJONIXION]

He will be flying a desk for now on!

[tubelogicat]

brakes please

[moviemanstan]

EPIC FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[xraytwonine]

lol what the hell.... extending the gears when the plane had already grind the runway for over 500ft

[RenoGregory]

idiot pulled up his landing gear :P lol

[cycostinkoman]

GUYS IM FLYIN!

[fldewey]

It's footage of a Russian test flight... it was planned.

[AmericanGirlRocks17]

oops...that pilot shouldnt have done tht

[asease1234]

oh, this was from russia, that explains all

[Dejablue630]

Tru' dat.

[mirlin235]

no russian pilots are some of the best in the world and trust me

some of the things you see coming out of america, well its fucking funny, same with france, and so on and so on

[asease1234]

every country can say that "our pilots are best" hehe

[mirlin235]

true

but then again some of the best countries in the world(ie best militarys are Russia, Canada, America, and some countrys in Europe)

[Icarusdecending82]

Russian pilots are shit. The are GCI dependent and get under 100 hours of flight training a year. Not to mention the aircraft and equipment they use can really only compete in a 1980s war...certainly not a 21st century war.

[modwebby]

cool thats why i love f-14 more XD

[PolxenTwo]

He was roller blading and his foot moved a bit to the left and split

[engasal]

noooo. i love the mig-29 :(

[syntaxerror9]

It hapened to a man i know. He retracted gears too quickly. But, when the gears were retracting it made air brake. And the few knots it had over stall speed were not enough... He crashed a Mirage F1 on the runway with 4250 liters of fuel. He crossed all the air base and finished in a field! One week later, he was in the air again!

[tnguy93]

lol what an idiot. retracted the wheels before take off.

[loomspan]

Imagine having to explain that.

[micromused]

And these people use bombs! Thats a problem!

[bet14039]

gear was already selected up. When the weight on wheels switch was released the gear cycled up.

[thorax1985]

its a race boat!

[sonnysingh03]

whats the point lowering the gear now? wtf lmao now uve damedged that aswell u dum fuck

[DextersWheelFilms]

lol Weeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *crunch*

[wiiboy456]

WEEEEEEEEEEEE, MiG-29 Sled!!!

[lowgonn]

i think he turned the landing gear off by mistake

[KjB1ogger]

nice million dollar jet

[weipeiwu2000]

i bet he tried to put the gear down and make it look like nothing happened.

[mgf130]

lol....good point

[89079]

GEAR UP!

[plefno]

I like towards the end when you can see the gear try to go back down. Like, "Maybe if I put the gear back down, no one will notice what happened."

[DTYFZ450SE]

Good job pulling the gear up too early!

[Jamalje]

I like it but was anyone hurt

[Armuotas]

nop, the plane didn't roll, didn't crash, it simply skid along the track nicely :)

[leokimvideo]

thats a very short flight....nice video
