cowboy airline pilot makes a scary takeoff

[IsawPWND]

my first though was " everyone just shit their pants "

[jakeyg97]

This is done when thief are no passengers on the plane just sayin

[zaq4267]

I bet he spilt his beer all over the place.

[coolboy3932]

omg that is scaary 

[yamadude1000]

Passing a fattie in the cockpit hahaha

[Facu4815]

looks like me on flight sim x

[SeaCraftTheMan]

Skillz . . . :P

[drftme]

called skill

[kujo4242]

Former fighter pilot's first day on the job as an airline pilot.

Requests an unrestricted climb to cruise! LoL

[aqw4009]

HELL YA says the passanger not puking lol

piolet FUCK YA DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[spacetownman]

This has GOT to be a "Naval Aviator" behind the yoke of this aircraft!!!

[spacetownman]

WOA!! Now THAT'S what you call a "thrill ride"!!!

[Flugfritze96]

holy... but the wings had no flex :D ->empty

[BCFSXCYYJ2010]

At 0:22 the G-force wouldve been incredible!!

[Ingwassim]

he was drunk

[mcladriftmaniac]

its an rc u can tell by when i backs off from the plane

[ferventlycavalier]

@mcladriftmaniac This doesn't make any sense at all.  What did you mean?

[glennirish]

lots of little people onboard

[glennirish]

Skilled pilot

[SIAFSX]

GODDAMN IT PEOPLE!!! ITS A RC AIRCRAFT!!!!!

[PotatoGunsRule]

I would pay extra for that takeoff! I am not joking.

[mrmoerder]

Bullshit. Fly-By-Wire wouldnt let u do this.



[rossiflyby1384]

Perfect SOFT FIELD TAKE-OFF .... 1st time i ever see on big aircraft.

[beepleboop99]

I CAN'T TELL IF THIS IS REAL OR JUST AN AIRSHOW?

[larsjake]

Airshow, no paying customers. It is called " showing what your product can do". Basta

[HSTcallum]

yeeha!

[TheDanAdibi]

I would jump out of that plane at 0:23

[klaprat]

0:24 max pitch for the computers. Computers are flying, not the pilots!

[HaloReachMcfarlane]

That is at an AIrshow

[Hypsan]

After watch that, I'm left with two possible conclusions. 1.) Footage was tampered with, i.e., altered. 2.) Genuine, unaltered footage taken at an airshow. The markings on the plane were very minimal, and there were a lot of aircraft out and about. I'm going with airshow footage. Pretty kewl footage, too!!

[ATP1123]

Nothing wrong with that! Would be so much quicker if all flights were flown that aggresivley!

[rollosnook]

airshow, enough said...



[ToyKingWonder]

Why on so many of these types of videos is there a "Chuck Norris in the cockpit" comment?

[pk33617]

@ToyKingWonder Oh, that's one of the standard YouDousche things...you may have also seen "Did you film this with a potato/toaster/chicken, etc" or " blah blah Justin Bieber blah blah.." OR "DAMN NATURE! YOU SCARY!" OR "240P, we meet again" OR any variation of being in the 'weird' part of YouTube, or having difficulty/ease in masturbating to something.

[ilovetails123]

@pk33617 or switching to porn cause its easier to explain

[superhockeyman699]

This is actually an airshow for all you idiots who would think an airline pilot with thousands of hours would make such a dumb move, so get your head straight

[superhockeyman699]

This is actually an airshow for all you idiots who would think an airline pilot with thousands of hours would make such a dumb move.

[TheStones2121]

to me it looks a very skillful piece of flying - no doubt it would not have happened had the pilot not wanted to buzz the aircraft on the ground. Needs his licence revoking

[digraw99]

THIS IS WEIRD

[MrAman707]

airshow

[ShriekingDeathBat]

This is what happens when you let chuck norris into the cockpit

[sanattech]

This is obviously an airshow.

[ParkLaneTottenham1]

Yeah what a dick. I'd have spewed all over the place if I was on that.

[bmxncars]

If thats how he takes off a plane, how does he land it... Upside down?

[KPAracing]

Picking up airspeed this way so bloody fast

[tewkewl]

holy shiz! now thatz some skills!

[n33dyr1]

haha another rip off video fail, originally a clip from an airshow clearly now they were serving hot drinks when terrorist took over and killed all the 97 prhans on board.........

[DoomsYann]

I hope of course that everyone knows that this is a video of an airshow and not a departure flight. THis is just an example of what airbus planes can do XD.

[VegasTrepid]

Spirit airlines does this all the time lol

[rocksinger45]

If I was on that plane I would make a run for the door and scream "get me off this FUCKING PLANE"...the pilot's next job will be flying planes into buildings..what an ASSHOLE.

[J90JAM]

It was a test flight. HTH.

[bistro4]

Model aircraft.

[Krait99]

Looks almost like he was practicing a combat take-off, fly low, gain speed then jump the plane up to avoid ground fire

[rashidfly116]

wtf

[slithertoothy]

it's a f****** model aircraft for f*** sake people get over it.

[tomone33]

@slithertoothy simply lol

[samthecat07]

that was a close call...or stall I should say

[CaRa9273]

It was an airshow, the people wanted to see something like this.

And i think the airplane was empty^^, today Eurowings is part of Lufthansa Regional

[pcolalongfellow]

how many people inside that plane shit their pants is the big question...

[toutatis12]

@pcolalongfellow You can bet it wasn't loaded w/ passengers or they would be suing and the captain would be out of a job. This was either a flight test or an airshow.

[nillazilla44]

YEAHHH BUDDY! Immediately everyone in that plane either threw up, cried, or started screaming!

[extere]

@nillazilla44 i think it was an empty plane.

[ibrahimhcaglayan]

Typical airshow flight pattern. That is why they are there!

[kybartender]

now thats a damn fly by.. (well sort of)

[Miata822]

passengers barfing all over...

[apnudi]

pretty badass pilot

[CODMODDERZ360]

Flyboy041786 is actually CORRECT. Like it or not, he's right. BenGaut is correct, Airbus's and Boeing's do NOT have procedures for this type of takeoff BUT the aircraft still have to pass these sort of tests. In a way your both right. This is not a normal procedure but it does still do this during the testing phases.

[TheDocAfro]

Nope it was Blue Angel number 6 having a flashback



[dino312989]

Psyco!!

[241hnd]

Can someone explain what is meant by 'soft-field proceedures?

[BenGaut]

@241hnd Soft-field takeoffs and landings are done on grass, dirt, gravel, and otherwise non-paved surfaces (except water... that's different all together). Basically, you hold all the way back on the yoke to take as much pressure off the nose wheel as possible, preventing it from digging in to the ground. Then you ride a wheelie down the runway until the mains come off. Then you level off in ground-effect to build up enough airspeed to climb out. And no I'm not a troll. You actually do a wheelie

[chrissyboy129]

No wonder they call it cowboy airlines

[chinkykapoor002]

I am lucky to be outside.... wtf!

[OMBIC]

big plain small runway, durp, if he landed there OFC he will take off lol

[40951]

your all wrong. this isnt a soft-field take off or a short field take off its a im shitting my self-takeoff

[newbeefly]

Alright everybody settle down... This is clearly John Travolta testing his kids bday gift out.

[Bjorn96100]

Tower: Climb to altitud 3 feet!

[jimmywacked]

Speed + Thrust + EmPTY = very do able.

[BenGaut]

I'm blown away that @flyboy041786 has the top comment on this video, when the comment is completely inaccurate. Airbuses do not have soft-field procedures. Light aircraft do. This is not a normal procedure.

[GhostAholics]

wrong...it's completely normal procedure for the certification process!!

[BenGaut]

@GhostAholics You are kidding, right? This has nothing to do with the certification process of an Airbus. This is from an airshow. I'm not saying it's a dangerous procedure (although the FAA could get you on 91.13). What I'm saying is Part 25 certified aircraft do not have soft field procedures for the simple reason that they are too heavy to land on a soft field. I fly Lears, and even THEY don't have soft-field procedures.

[n525cw]

@BenGaut even though they may not, ground effect is still there. As long as the plane stays within a wingspan of the ground, it will stay in ground effect, no matter the size of the plane. and as long at the plane rotates out of ground effect under maneuvering speed, they won't compromise the structural integrity of the plane, so while this may not be a normal procedure, it can still be done as long as you do it right.

[BenGaut]

@n525cw I'm aware of that. My post was not meant to say it was unsafe or impossible. It's not really unsafe at all. My point was that this is not a soft-field procedure.

[BenGaut]

@n525cw Out of curiosity... Did you fly the centurion or the Citation V?

[ChinaLake100]

@BenGaut well you do now! lol!

[KERKYRA199]

this is from an airshow

search airshow and you will see it

and believe me the rest of the video is awesome

the pilot makes manuvers like a fighter jet

[Boaber1]

So, do u mind explaining how that happened?? Well sir, one of those Russians came over so I had to take evasive actions, gave him a bit of cannon. Your not in the air force any more. Aw yeah, I wondered why my fighter was so big.

[00soundwave00]

scarry? FUN!!! =D

[moviesforrandy]

they should not hire x-military. FLASH BACK CITY.

[Hummermaniac1]

Just pullin' sum g's thats all

[Nautical1994]

That would be fun to ride in, screw roller coasters...

[u27driver]

Negative PAX on board .. If their were , you would have heard them screaming ..

[BUSDRIVER5532]

DAMM FOOL

[williambrodie]

Defo no PAX onboard

[MrC5N]

I wonder how many Gs are pulled on that take-off. Probably more than the operational limit of the aircraft. But how far from actual structure resistance?

[ivanschouten]

@MrC5N do you know which G-force ANY aircraft must be albe to handle (exclusive safety margins)? It's 3.8G positive, which was probably not exceeded in this case. Unusual maneuver though.

[TheDanceofjoy]

Woww !!

[hallobaaaby]

This goes like this: V1.....V2...DO NOT ROTATE!

LoL

[leremg]

it's from an airshow

[janssen70]

i wish all pilots did that makes flying less boring

[nikkiola06]

this does look fake. i mean, surely this plane is too big for such a quick manouvre???? correct me if im wrong pilots!

[BenGaut]

@nikkiola06 No, it's definitely possible. If you pull all the way back on the yoke (stick, in this case), it will absolutely pitch up that fast. And to clarify my previous post: this was not a dangerous maneuver. Just a guy showing off.

[neurocidesakiwi]

The amount of vomit that would come out of me would be record breaking.

[nevagonnadie2]

guys lets be serious... thats clearly a maximum performance take off

[datswagg18]

oh.......NO SEAT BELTS OKKKKKKK!!!!!!!

[saltyflapjacks]

Part 23 aircraft do not have to be certified for "soft-field" t/o. Think logically for a second, a 410,000 lbs 767-300 landing on a grass runway...

[Bill1275w]

No, that's not right, transport category jets do not do short and soft field procedures like that. You're thinking of utility category aircraft like a Cessna 172. Big jets just don't use short and soft runways.

[johnsvideochannel]

it's a very large model aircraft....you can see the size of it flying past all the small real planes.

[GumbyTheBorg]

Oh and on a takeoff like this, the pilot would have to go full thrust, yet there is no 'exhaust trail' and when the pilot climbs hard, the wings do not seem to flex the way they should.

[GumbyTheBorg]

It's not a real aircraft, it's a model kit aircraft. The video was shot at an angle that makes it look as though its a real aircraft (well done btw), but if you look carefully, by the time the plane flies by the planes on the ground, it looks as though the runway is beyond the parked aircraft even though the runway is actually IN FRONT of the parked aircraft.

[leftywilson51]

@GumbyTheBorg no your wrong about that, that is the taxiiway its a real plane its a shortfield takeoff

[nzthunderboy]

thats a lot of tension for aircraft..

[OzNormandy]

This is a demonstration, and these comments are sure sorting out the aviation from non aviation people!

[Eternalpyre1]

He was busy masturbating with his hand, and he was using his weak hand to pull back the stick :P

[ldchappell1]

I was on a flight to Reno that took off just like that in 1990. I had to throw my underwear away.

[MrMatko90]

now I know why name of the airlines is COWBOY airline :D

[cLaNiCoD]

fake



[JinjaBredManMusic]

@cLaNiCoD just...just die. 

[CurlyFries3000]

is that a passenger plane?

omg imagine if it was and ur sitting reading ur magazine and then the pilot practically turns the plane upside down!

[staticbatch]

that was a simulated soft field take off

[khpn]

You'll be very surprised at what commerical airplanes can do.

[hadishark7]

This man is out of his mind .

[mustang19ms]

this is Austrian airlines in a rainy day!

[19990305]

is he ok?

[JIM30747]

If anyone on board was constipated upon boarding the plane, I would bet that after about a minute into the flight that they did not have this problem!

[flyboy041786]

This is called a soft-field takeoff. Its part of certification for this aircraft. There are no passengers onboard this aircraft and the pilot is doing nothing out of the ordinary. Cool takeoff, but no scary in the slightest.

[sailesh2001]

@flyboy041786 dont think its a soft-field

you would have full back stick on the soft field to get the nose wheel off asap.

Seems more like a shortfield or just a demonstration

[flyboy041786]

@sailesh2001 You don't stay in ground effect on short-field takeoffs...you're trying to get over the FAA-mandated 50' tree at the end of the runway so you would kill yourself if you did that.

[lekoman]

@flyboy041786 LOL, "the FAA-mandated 50' tree." I think sometimes the FAA issues a waiver for those, though, if you've got power lines, or even better, an apartment high rise full of families or a children's hospital in roughly the same position. ;)

[kingflyer223]

@flyboy041786 Now say that when your on it then i'll believe you i already tought about here is my script

You:its not that bad

:ok still ok

Pilot:here we go

You:Holy FucKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK­KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK ahh ! put the f** ground holy shit chuck norris we'll shit his pants in this AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[5xls]

@flyboy041786 You're completely full of SHIT. Neither Airbus nor Boeing has soft-field or short-field procedures in their operating manuals. This isn't a fucking Cessna 182, turd.

[flyboy041786]

@5xls You must be a complete fucking retard if you don't think Airbus and Boeing have procedures for those types of takeoffs. Take your head out of your ass, watch your mouth and STFU

[5xls]

@flyboy041786 Enter temperature, field elevation, chart shows required runway length, simple as that. This video is just someone showing off with no passengers. You're a typical expert mommy's basement masterbater youtube troller with no pilot experience. Watch my mouth? Go fuck yourself.

[BenGaut]

@flyboy041786 They don't have procedures for those types of takeoffs. They are not approved for any surface other than hard surfaces. The VAST majority of jet aircraft (and other Part 25 certified aircraft) do not have soft-field procedures, simply because they are too heavy for anything but concrete or asphalt. This was not a certification test. This was, indeed, a pilot showing off. How do I know this? I fly jets for a living. Do you?

[s9523pink]

@flyboy041786 Agreed!

[Aruchan16]

@flyboy041786 And what you're sayin is bullcrap. Soft-field take off on an A319...

[mstngjay]

@flyboy041786 I would understand a soft field departure for an aircraft designed for soft field, but it looks to me like they were showing off. I've never seen an Airbus land on a grass strip...

[frauspi]

@flyboy041786 Bullshit, Airbus's don't do soft field takeoffs. This is called showing off.

[Dominoes282]

@flyboy041786 True but I bet the GPWS had it at most everything

[hookmhorns91]

@flyboy041786 its actually a short field but you got the concept. lol

[guitarist347]

@flyboy041786 Totally not true.

[TZEProductions]

@flyboy041786 74 Idiots liked your post because they don't know shit about an airbus.

This is what you call one badass pilot,End of story.

[cc1sportingtorver]

@flyboy041786 There's nothing out of the ordinary about this takeoff? Hehehehe... LoL ... iJH... AUSHAUSHAUSHAUSHAUSH xD Great joke! He nearly stalled the plane but.. no, there's nothing out of the ordinary... AHAHAHAHAH xD xD Flyboy, you're a comedian! Thumbs-up on your comment xD

[snarfblast14]

this is a test flight most likely

[marshalllucky]

what vidoe game is these , can you get for the x-box?

[FlugSimulatorXfan]

looks like a flight show, nothing else >.>

[BillabongQ955]

yeah boy!

[HelloNewYorkCity]

TERRAIN PULLUP - TERRAIN PULLUP - TERRAIN PULLUP- TERRAIN PULL-UP

[griggsmichael]

This is at an Air Show, no passengers.

[a320FO]

Definitely not a commercial flight... but I admit this looks unbelievable similar to a flight I was a passenger on departing the GA runway at Bergstrom... nearly had a heart attack.

[peaceout1355]

swag.

[CadetCPL2606]

I wonder how many passengers were clentching on to their seats lol.

[mrchillout1989]

what kind of feeling it would be

[SuperSuperalex1]

@mrchillout1989 Great!

[prakashdx007]

crazy..

[XxNx007xNxX]

Show off!!

[NshTactics]

he just went into ground effect. gained a lot of airspeed and took off like a bat outa hell. its what people do in a lot of soft and short field takeoffs. this is a common practice.....but......not with these kinda planes.

[andyj91]

You just watched a hundred people shit themselves at the same time.

[andyj91]

You just watched a hundred people shit themselves at the same time.

[DJsaavan101]

holy moly :)

[SuperKingcobra33]

That is how the Venezuela Pilots pull up. Aircraft handles it fine, but the passengers have to get used to it.

[hickrystyk]

short field takeoff....that's all

[fillingreat]

that was hard

[TinyKILL96]

impossible the plane would stall

[stellapaulie]

im pretty sure that was at an airshow and didnt have any paps onit

[Spaceace2001]

@stellapaulie I agree... Pilot is doing airshow and flying to show off the plane's rate of climb and turn characteristics. They level off after take off to get the airspeed up before cranking the nose up and leaning over so not so stupid. Plus it looked like an Airbus win which case you can't stall it as the computer sets the max rate of climb & turn.

[stellapaulie]

@Spaceace2001 someone knows abit about aviation haha my friends a pilot and he also agrees.

[GHILLIExSnipez]

I would hate to be a passenger on that plane

[Hoschi0913]

i bet one passanger wanted to experience a "real" take off ......lol
