you have to admit the pilot was able to keep the helicopter in the air, even after the rear tire caught the ground. i just feel sorry for the poor man who fell out at: :11 seconds. watch by the gear that clipped the ground, i hope the propellers didnt get him
If you ask me they handled that extremely well, look how many correctional rotations it did until the blades hit the ground. (unfortunately) It wasnt until then that it got to much to handle.
@tobymasters1 Coaxial rotor copters are less agile? Where did you read that? Not that I'm insisting you're wrong, just that I was under the impression that they tended to be more agile (talking mostly about the Ka-52 here). And whether stability is a pro or con depends on what type of chopper you're talking about; in an AH-64, fast and nimble will help you survive. A CH-53 with a M1 Abrams slung underneath is better off not being too twitchy! Although coaxials can fail as well.
@justforever96 I'm A helicopter engineer in the armed forces, and the proof is in the pudding! An Augusta westland super lynx helicoper is the fastest in the world, and most manoverable! a Puma is very manoverable for a troop carrier (without the speed obviously). Just look at RC helicopters! The single blade type is the shit to own!
@tobymasters1 Doesn't it depend on how well engineered it is, to a certain extent? There are single rotor copters that are slower than a Ka-52, and less maneuverable. Just saying, it isn't ALL about the layout. But if you're right, all else being equal, a single rotor is better (although there are other advantages to twins. Nothing is perfect!) I'm curious, how do twin-rotors like a CH-47 stack up? I know the Chinook is pretty fast, but that's about it. And then there's Kamans...
@VorSatanClause Yeah, I hate it when people talk out of their ass when they no nothing about a subject...why would a pilot keep his foot down on the rudder pedal and spin out of control on accident? That guy actually did a good save and it could have ended up worse.
@CJFrasher Actually, it might have been. Doesn't seem as if it hit hard enough to total the airframe. At least they can still part it out, if all else fails...
@Aerohunde To set it down as an autorotate implies that the engine is dead to begin with, so I don't see how he both failed to throttle down and "tried to set it down as an autorotate" simultaneously. I think that by the time he realized what was happening, the thing was already yawing so fast that even if he DID throttle back, the momentum and lack of yaw control kept it yawing, and the gyroscopic force of the rotors tilted it until the rotors struck. I'll bet you wouldn't have done better.
@justforever96 They hit too hard and damaged the tail rotor drive system and/or control linkage - lousy flying indeed. Theres two pilots in there, neither performed well at all... both neglected to cut the fuel or idle the engines. Error upon error.
@Aerohunde So I assume you're talking as one with a few hundred hours of cockpit time, and much experience making hot and heavy troop insertions with large transport choppers? Were mistakes made? Yes. Does that make these pilots incompetent a-holes who can't fly? No. These aren't standard airport landings; accidents happen. Should they have cut the throttle? Yes. Next time, they will! When you get an A+ in the same situation, then you can judge them. They call it "training" for a reason.
dont call a pilot stupid. they're VERY smart. also, this looked like he accidentally struck his tail rotor on the ground, so it got jacked up and couldnt make the thrust it needed to stop from spinning like that. dont call the pilot stupid or drunk when you can barely drive a damn car right
@yakridermedia yes, stupid there, reason he lost the tail rotor is because he piched up to hard to compensate for coming in quick and hit the tail rotor on the ground. i would call that stupid....
Helicopters are one of the hardest vehicles to master. Show the pilot some respect. He flys that helicopter too battlefield and carrys expensive weapons and armour to places so you can pass the day safe
@eastcoast78 You also can see him being struck by the landing gear on the very next revolution after the one that tossed him out, so no, he didn't "make it" without injury at least
@RampantRedBull There is a version of the UH 60 that is known as the "helo" I think it is used buy the navy and coast guard the army uses the "blackhawk". I thought you had mistaken the puma for the helo, so yeah i was being serious.
@TrippandRun I have never, ever heard of a UH-60 variant called the "Helo", unless it's short for "helicopter". I've heard of the UH-60 Blackhawk, the USAF HH/MH-60 Pave Hawk, the USN SH-60 Seahawk, and the Coast Guard HH-60 Jayhawk, and also "Rescue Hawk", "Oceanhawk", and "Knighthawk", but never "Helo" or Helo Hawk". You might find it better to just cut your losses and run when you've said something dumb, rather than trying to argue that you were right all along!
vos geulle avk vos comentaire de pd !! alé vous faire les etranger ki parle sur cett video !! le gar a fé une erreur de maneuvre de pilotage et il sé écrassé !! on voit dan les secondes avan le crash ke tout les homme du gign se replie au centre de l'engin et se tiennent pré au choc !! on a déploré 5 bléssé léger dont 2 grave le pilote a été le plus touché !!
@cthulhu11111111 What the fuck!!!!!!! helicopters don't have brakes and even if the wheels did have brakes, his tail-rotor failed causing the torque of the engine to spin the helicopter, there was no escaping it.
@cliffy4418 if he had hit the rotor brakes, he'd dropped like a rock and even though he wasn't that high, some people migh have gotten back injuries from hitting the ground so hard. what he should've done is taken all the throttle out and pulled full collective, less throttle equals less torque.
the worst part would be once it starts to lean, for the dudes in the back, seeing spinning rotor blades right next to you, as gravity pulls you into them (since they are now sideways, falling out, into the path of chopping blades!!
@Rookie1989Chi I believe that's a BIT more than "hundreds of dollars" there. Well, I suppose it COULD be called "many-ten's-of-thousand's-of -$100's", but that a lot more awkward than just saying "hundreds of thousands of dollars". Or in this case, probably francs, since it's a French chopper. BTW, I'm pretty sure the guy talking about it being "not so bad" was being facitious (AKA "joking").
Military pilots are taught to fly aggressive. Especially when they drop special teams behind lines, which is what they looked like they were practicing. So people can call the dude an ass all day but hey sometimes shit happens when your TOLD to fly like a crazy man.
