@ounpug Well if you hate a kid who plays FS and think he knows everything about aviation, i agree with you, besides, reading from aviation books you can learn more beyond, specially about air disasters
How to overcome ground-effect: Cut the throttle to idle and give slight nose up. He could have put it down before the middle of the runway. However, after the mid-point, add full throttle and bring up the gear for a go-round and try it all again. That sure beats shoveling sand out of your britches.
Hey, I know the guy flying this plane...I've seen him working the till at my local Pizza Hut...must be a new career direction for him. Poor bugger though... I do feel bad for him. Wouldn't it piss you off to have your overrun on youtube? Hope I never have a day that bad while I'm flying.
yes its an idiot that will crash and possibly kill people rather than to simply go around and try again . some people just shouldnt be at the controls .
Idiot. Or smart guy having a bad brain day. GO AROUND! OBVIOUSLY too to hot over the fence and way too much float. Probly due to the steep approach angle (steep hill on final?) Might be better to land downwind on 20 with a flatter approach over the water and hit the numbers. +10-20 kts would still allow plenty of room to stop.
You shoudn't judge his decision to go ahead and land. Maybe he had diahrrea and had to get to the bathroom really bad. Or he had to really piss. You don't know.
we dont have the exact situation or the reason for him to not to go around (he might have a problem with engine or even fuel) but other than that his decision of not going around is a failure yes ..but still this airfield looks pain in the ass to land...
Before you go calling him an idiot.. Correct me if I am wrong but he could have been running low on fuel or had some kind of failure. Respect for others, I am sure you would not want some guy on youtube calling you an idiot for something you know you did wrong or any other reasons that could have applied.
I wouldn't call him an idiot. Maybe an anxious person who wanted finish the flight quickly. Anyway, I think the first mistake was an overspeed during the dive. He couldn't even try to flare the plane a bit.
IMO go around should have been the decision in the moment he didn't see the aiming point anymore and hadn't touched down yet.
Very good video capture of a very unfortunate event. Always a shame to see a plane take a beating for a pilot's poor judgment. Glad no one was hurt, of course.
I think that approach was not "fully happy", it seems to be so faster, but runway was by conditions very difficult, a a novel pilot I think once the pilot passes the take off point, he would have to give fully power and abort this landing, to try it again, buy anyway was an idiot...
You really can't say "idiot"... Someone who has put so many hours into flying and just this airport can be a disaster. It is a difficult approach and I agree he should have gone around but no way he is an idiot. Respect for all fellow pilots
@PilotCJensen Touching down before the first 30% of runway...not the last 30%. Only an idiot confuses that. Any student pilot would have said "oh crap" halfway down the runway and would have done a go-around.
@PilotCJensen Hey careful now, obviously someone who takes someone's video without crediting them, capitalizes each and every word in their title and description, then cheats an ellipses out of it's third 'period' CERTAINLY knows an idiot when they see one. lol
@PilotCJensen Your point is taken. And as a fellow pilot I agree that the 'idiot' label may be an unfair conclusion. I certainly would agree with TNCMAviator in describing the behavior, if not the person, as foolish, given his extremely late touchdown point on Rwy 10. I understand the difficulties of TFFJ but the aviation principles hold. It was foolish not to go-around.
Nevermind that regardless of what type of pilot you are, one universal truth for piloting aircraft is that X feet down the runway you won't have enough left to stop safely and it's better to go around instead of risking it.
Whether somebody calling this pilot foolish can or can't is utterly irrelevant - he was trying to land in spite of running out of usable runway space - by that point most others would have tried a go around. UNLESS there was good reason, like running out of fuel, it shouldn't have ended this way.
halfway down that runway if his rear wheels didn't touch down he oughta open that throttle wide and go around, hes got plenty of lift under him to do it.... must've needed to pee or waited too long up there and had to declare a fuel emergency.
Well. Not that im defending this poor moron. but it can be other factors he didn't go around. Such as poor training, lack of fuel, and very VERY low intelligence.
I agree that the idiot does not know what go around is, but what idiot designed this airport? I mean WTF!? The worse ones I've seen are in south America.
@Pvjinflight In these days it would be possible to build airport on artificial island. Not very cheap though. Maybe little runway extension would be possible.
@ItsMinecraftify There is a possibility for a go around at this airport, in fact there is always a possibility for a go around unless there is a huge ass mountain on the other side of the runway (and yes, there are airport which have) but here, you can do a go around. And for this airport, you must in fact do a special training to operate to or from this airport.
happens to my too. my instructor made pick up the airplane back in the air just to teach me a lesson. if you think you can not make or you going too fast or nose diving just pull up and go around even if you had to do many times.
You guys don't know the moral of this crash, and where the video came from. First of all, this ISN'T his video. He has no idea of what he's talking about. The pilot was low on fuel and going around wasn't an option. Going to high was pilot error. He had not other choice.
@trypwned regardless of fuel problems, he was approaching too fast and he touched down pass half of the runway. it tells if he was a good pilot or not. if i was in the same situation i would be more careful since there is only one chance for me to land and no go around option. honestly the way the runway looks does not help too
@estiedesacrament " stupid fat internet sore loser" "frustrated fat recession nigger" your attempts at insults just keep getting more and more petty, almost to the point of humor
ATC: "Abort landing... abort landing"... crash Test Driver: "Wtf just happened?" ... seller of the airplane: "I forgot to tell you that it slows down much quicker in water. It was about time for a new plane for me anyways."
estiedesacrament WAS ALREADY REMOVED FROM SOME OTHER VIDS COMMENTS AND BLOCKED BECAUSE OF HIS IGNORANCE AND IF HE TRUELY IS A BRITT, WELL THEY SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIM NO CLASS, FOUL MOUTH, IGNORANT IN 3 LANGUAGES, I THINK THIS POOR WANKING OLD CHAP WAS NOT BREASTFED...? DROPPED ON HIS HEAD?
Ignore him, flag him, block him. He has definitly got a screw loose and obviously has MANY ISSUES to deal with... So he needs to start crap everywhere he posts to get attention...Sad very sad....
A go around should have been executed given the high/fast approach resulting in a post mid field touchdown point. The only exception to a go around would be if the plane was having some mechanical failure such as one engine out thus potentially making a go around more risky than a runway run off. If the plane was fully operational, a go around would have beent the appropriate choice. I hope all were OK
@TNCMAviator1013 I submit to you that you know nothing of the circumstances of this landing and as such are in no position to label the pilot an "idiot". Leaving aside for the moment that the more subtle signs on display here indicate to even a seasoned amateur what ACTUALLY happened on this landing renders a "go around" (as you put it) an irrelevance, even a beginner would at least consider elevator failure before leaking the knee-jerk bile and diarrhea cocktail that you have just done.
@billiepipersteeth You must feel really proud patrolling YouTube and delivering everyone your contrarian views masqueraded as aviation expertise. When I read safety reports, I often wish they could be as eloquent and self-righteous as the acclaimed billiepipersteeth of YouTube.
As for an "elevator failure" on approach to St. Barts... get real mate, it'd be a flaming lump of metal at the thresh.
You know the saying "a good landing is one you can walk away from, a great landing is one where you can use the plane again"... Well... guess this was a "good" one.
Don't be too hard on him. That accident could happen to anyone. He was just used to landing on much longer runways and out of practice on short field operations.
Lesson one in the shuttle commanders guild to Top Gun status in the aviation world says that you must go for the greaser no matter how much runway it takes. As long as you grease it...what happens after that is justified. This pilot is excellent. Its about the greaser folks.
I agree with tnccaviator934 that he was way too fast. PLUS at 0:27 he still didnt touch down, which means he should definitely been going around. I mean there was no trees or anything behind the runway, so why is he in such a hurry? :P
this pilot might be a good pilot, but one decision means everything and going around is an important one, perhaps a new pilot taking friends or an experienced pilot thats got complacent. fight should always be respected because nothing else is as unforgiving. i hope they were all ok
jajajajajajaajjajajajajajjaajja what an idiot! what was he doing flying aplne, should hace been like sharpening pencils or something . . . under supervision, jajajajajajaja what an idiot, that was a nice plane! whata shame!!!!
I'm a pilot and this man is an idiot. if he knew he was going too fast, because there wasn't enouhg frontal wind that we suppose that "forced" him to land from that side, he cuold abort landing inmadiately and easely.... this man is sure an idiot, no doubt.
He had a pretty long time to decide to go around... He floated long enough for the average person to realize that "Im gonna crash if I dnt go around..."
Mmm...he had a headwind, so I'm guessing too shallow on approach, too much airspeed judging by the flare and roundout. Should have throttled up and gone around. Poor decision making - needs to brush up on Human Factors just a bit.
@7474b you know hes probly like a mile away from the end of the runway.... he wouldn't have made it to the bottom of the hill before the trucks got there.
i am getting my pilots license and my instructor says the most important thing is to no when to go around... you might get laughed at a bit but it is better then what happened here. he should have known better especially if hes been flying long enough to get his twin engine/complex rating.
@7474b no I would definitely say he's an idiot. That runway is one of the shortest in the world, and if he wasn't on the ground by the halfway point he should have gone around.
Guy was a touch too high, a touch too fast, ground effect fought him and he fought her down too late. There are pictures on the web of planes nearly clipping cars here, like one of a Cessna Caravan missing a Mini Cooper by inches. A simple case of "Get-Home-itis".
He touched down on the wrong aiming marks:D...This happens when you really do want to land...But I would not call him an Idiot as it is written in the headline, bad luck and little experience with short-field landing on this airport... This airport requires experience
THIS IS AN A RISK APPROACH, IT'S NOT SAFER AT ALL.

too fast should have gone around and tired it again haha BUT! any landing you can walk away from, is a good landing in my book.

I agree with tnccaviator934 that he was way too fast. PLUS at 0:27 he still didnt touch down, which means he should definitely been going around. I mean there was no trees or anything behind the runway, so why is he in such a hurry? :P

Even though tis guy is not the owner of the video you couldnt get into the airport since they are fenced in. I suppose all you can do is watch

@HornbyExpress Actually very few small airports are fenced in.

this pilot might be a good pilot, but one decision means everything and going around is an important one, perhaps a new pilot taking friends or an experienced pilot thats got complacent. fight should always be respected because nothing else is as unforgiving. i hope they were all ok

Well, but he touched down at a Touchdown-point. On the wrong one.

IDIOT INDEED!!!but idiot with siren, thats what happend when the idiots go for pilots just because they have the money...

I'm a pilot and this man is an idiot. if he knew he was going too fast, because there wasn't enouhg frontal wind that we suppose that "forced" him to land from that side, he cuold abort landing inmadiately and easely.... this man is sure an idiot, no doubt.

He seen you with the video cam and thought he be on youtube so he tried to make it cool, only he got the other kinda cool with some salt with it

He had a pretty long time to decide to go around... He floated long enough for the average person to realize that "Im gonna crash if I dnt go around..."
redskinfan17 1 year ago
Mmm...he had a headwind, so I'm guessing too shallow on approach, too much airspeed judging by the flare and roundout. Should have throttled up and gone around. Poor decision making - needs to brush up on Human Factors just a bit.

wouldnt say hes an "idiot" - would have maybe been an idea to go help him?

@7474b Right, go help him. The fire department is already there, so no need to help him, as he's already receiving help.
pingpongpung 1 year ago
@7474b you know hes probly like a mile away from the end of the runway.... he wouldn't have made it to the bottom of the hill before the trucks got there.
i am getting my pilots license and my instructor says the most important thing is to no when to go around... you might get laughed at a bit but it is better then what happened here. he should have known better especially if hes been flying long enough to get his twin engine/complex rating.
ryancrazy1 11 months ago
@7474b no I would definitely say he's an idiot. That runway is one of the shortest in the world, and if he wasn't on the ground by the halfway point he should have gone around.
clovis86 2 months ago
@clovis86 not even close to the top 100 in the shortest in the world. yes he should have gone around though.
dvnmahoney 2 months ago
@dvnmahoney def not at over 2,000 ft but considering the hill in front of the threshold still a very short runway even for light aircraft.

@7474b help him? by running 10 minutes to the end of the runway? Then what?

@7474b That and the firetruck was on the runway within 35-40 seconds.

Guy was a touch too high, a touch too fast, ground effect fought him and he fought her down too late. There are pictures on the web of planes nearly clipping cars here, like one of a Cessna Caravan missing a Mini Cooper by inches. A simple case of "Get-Home-itis".

davida41200 2 years ago
He touched down on the wrong aiming marks:D...This happens when you really do want to land...But I would not call him an Idiot as it is written in the headline, bad luck and little experience with short-field landing on this airport... This airport requires experience
