Accidental VTOL Takeoff

[filmyolataniu]

Notice that elevator is at maximum up position. All the time. If someone were inside, would try to controll it.. FAKE or something :)

[chubsmagoo]

And that is why you use tie downs....just sayin...

[theaustralianshooter]

The plane is thinking ''I GOTTA FIND BUBBA''

[inthepurelight]

Tie downs? I don't need no stinking tie downs!

[flugverrueckt]

Good thing no one was in the plane! What was the wind speed?

[hubbardr1]

@flugverrueckt a 45 mph gust would be more than enough to pick it up in ground effect.

[onecheman]

And so is how an ULM evolves into a Kite

[mytmousemalibu]

I'd be sick if that was mine or my fault/not my plane. Tisk, tisk, tisk, not tied down AND insult to injury, no gust locks, see that full up elevator too... Kitplane, cheap plane, any plane... what a shame. I'll be exalted just to get a 152/172 to licence in one of these days, thats expensive enough, couple minutes and some rope goes a long way...

[mstngjay]

Can I assume this was all staged? It looks like another aircraft parked in front of it.

[croweviolinist]

This "takeoff" really speaks to the stability of that aircraft. It bobs one way and the other but naturally returns to level - without a pilot.

[emp29]

Now they can't say that the crash was due to pilot error, because there was none to start with.

[Earssss]

@emp29 ,,, ya there was,, the one that did not tie it down lol

[dave0mary]

Lift overcame drag.

[RocketBurn11]

@dave0mary

Lift overcame weight, not drag.

[Thiswayup01]

Awesome video! - got some good airspeed flowing over those wings!

[Slowriderr]

0:20 i believe i can fly ...

[MrJasperDaniel]

and where is the crash??

[SeverumProductions]

This is why you dont park behind a 747

[mynameisntmicah]

an angry airplane owner says "look, i parked it right here and it's gone. it didn't just take off and fly away on it's own."

[kiyoshi666666]

"Where the Fuck is my plane"

[nick2191993]

fake

[TankerJYV]

@nick2191993 this is not fake!!!... do you know something called "Lift" o "takeoff speed"??? 

[tinapezz78]

@nick2191993 sure... airplanes fly when the wind passes fast enough over (and under) the wings, creating lift. If that wind comes from the aircraft being driven by engines or a storm, does not matter. NOT fake.

[jbdranger]

V1 Rotaayyyayayayay *crash*

[genenco1]

It'll buff out

[WickedWings07]

Chuck Noris was blowing on his hot soup at the airport restaurant.

[mynameisntmicah]

@WickedWings07 chuck norris could have done this from pluto with a mouse squeak fart....

[timothyp219]

look closely you will see that it was tied down, the ropes snapped.

[tonightwefly]

HaveBlue brought me here

[RealBigfootFilms]

the plane wants to be a helicopter

[limpidgreen345]

Tie down fail.

[Aeronca11]

Look at the elevator...Full up. If they had pushed the stick forward and secured it that way it wouldn't get up to the critical angle of attack to lift off... not to mention, three little pieces of rope would have been nice for tiedowns!

[JETT721]

Like a cartoon

[MrPeed11]

the owner of this aircraft must be pissed

[adman737]

at least there was no tail strike on take off.

[jetty19]

flying with a pilot is for pussy my friend ( russian accent)

[boeingt]

@jetty19 i can imagine how that would sound

[MrCarlRosen]

In Russia, they don't always tie the planes down.

[okinawascubadiver]

I hope he had insurance!

[FLIGHTCOMPANY]

The plane needed to Pee

[kingsharkoon]

In Russia planes fly itselves... ^^

(I want to do such a sentence once in my life! - btw this is at least a Russian registrated airplane)

[AirShark95]

A.Net brought me here.

[spider23000]

@AirShark95 Same here

[MadDogMD90]

Thats what airline managers always have been waiting for ... An aircraft which can fly without having to pay for fuel or a crew =P ...

[heliloco]

Fly with me Fly....!!

[TrainHDworld]

Future of air travel.. No pilot and no power.. lol

[Gruntig2008]

maybe they should try an anchor.

[BritishPrashant]

I must go....My people need me!

[HepheistoBD]

annnnnnd... its gone...

[SamuelLockyer]

Don't you mean VTOC? (Vertical Take-Off and Crash)

[MessedUpShet]

@SamuelLockyer same shit it all ends up with a plane getting destroyed

[EXPECTATIONFILMS]

@MessedUpShet He was being sarcastic...

[llachow]

@MessedUpShet um, not really. VTOL involves landing safely.

[diannapruett]

What does VTOL stand for? Were you inside the plane?

[redcorvettez06]

@diannapruett Vertical Take Off and Landing

[MadMonkey572]

What if it had been on a treadmill running backwards?

[jrj0092]

Tie downs are important

[AirstripBum]

@jrj0092 You beat me to it. LOL I hope there wasn't too much damage.

[Aidankiwi]

@jrj0092 Yeah, you're not kidding!
