Nice piloting. The 182 is much better than the 172. I had some closed un-improved fields I used to land in, and I did the same thing. Use ground effect to lift off, then yoke forward to fly just above the ground to gain airspeed for a climb out. Nicely done. Peace.
Dude, there is NO town NOR vollage in Venezuela is called Frijol... im guessing the locals or your daddy just told you that so you shut the f... up and stop asking while they loaded the "Medical" aid. lol
normally this type of light air craft should take less then 600 meter if loaded heavy weight could be round 900 meter but this video show more then what he need left off the ground unleast this pilot just to show off his fucking face
Nice take off for this environment. Some operations require this kind of out-of-safety-range flying. I was told by an instructors and examiners that for private pilot, you will have to operate withing safety zone, but for commercial operation you may face the situation where you would like to avoid but you have no choice to accept.
I can't believe there are people out there that do things like this just in a "normal day". What is wrong with my life! And I make multi-million volt Tesla Coils for a living!!!
@AirbusJuice Hi. I am private pilot. I analized this video and 0.2 seconds after taking off you can see the shadow of the plane on the trees just before he started turning to the left. This means that he was VERY VERY VERY close... hahahah
HE DID IT RIGHT: He got his speed and RPM's way up during his turn & run and he didn't pull up hard when he left the ground. He hovered a bit toward the end of the runway until his airspeed was over 100 knots which enabled him to pull up and do the turn. After he cleared the ground he didn't pull up right away... he gained airspeed. Thats the trick and a show of a good pilot.
Something most viewers probably aren't taking into account is the compression you get when you zoom in with any camera, the trees aren't quite as close as they look in this video, he had a little more room to spare than it appears. He also knows exactly what he's doing. Nice example of a soft field/short field takeoff where you couldn't have much more working against you.
@flyurway Seems like a great soft field, but why would he turn like that on takeoff and increase the load factor unnecessarily in such a vital stage of takeoff? Seems like that would be putting himself, passengers, and or people/property at greater risk unnecessarily. Obviosly this guy is good and he knows his shiz im just saying hes not flawless or 100% as safe as possible.
@TheFr3sh1 Au contrare. If you expand the description under the video he explains the what/why/where's of this takeoff. I'd say he IS being as 100% safe as possible - people like this don't screw around. As he states, he turns between the trees for terrain avoidance and as I stated, the compression effect you get from camera zoom gives you the impression he's turning/climbing much harder than he actually is. I stand by my statement, he's doing this exactly they way he has to, no more, no less!
First of all, flap at 20 degrees, second, don't over compensate and bank too hard or the angle of attack will sharply decrease and you'll lose you're lift. Also, be commited to the climb and don't second guess yourself or you'll make some dumb mistakes.
Pilot did a short field take-off, get the plane off the ground, fly it in ground effect, build up all the speed you can, and use your forward inertia to help launch you up above the obstacle. An extreme, yet classic example. Very well done!
can't just pin "weight" on a takeoff when the environment plays an equally important role. with a high DA, a really hot day, a shitty airstrip, and no wind, an 80 lb. teenager piloting a J-3 cub with a gallon of gas in it can make it look like it's carrying a volkswagon beetle on its back. If this guy WAS loaded to max gross, he did the right thing, he's got experience and he's flying another day. Don't cut the man down.
@TheBrooksteer , I don't know how you can tell if he's overweight just by this takeoff. everything is working against him:
1. muddy/ flooded strip = drag.
2. Soft Field takeoff technique = pulling her up into ground effect, every plane loafs during these takeoffs at first - completely normal
3. "he didnt pull up until he was way too close to the trees"... that's because he was gaining speed in ground effect, like you're supposed to. Speed converts to altitude, and vice versa

My brother was assassinated on 11.7.09 because of our homepage linked on my chanel. Whatever lie german snitchers tell you: Germany is the worst torture state on earth.
@sssoaring2 Not everyone dies. In 1988, My parents had an engine quit on takeoff and they were about 250 feet off the ground. They both lived and still fly today, though in a Cessna, not Piper.

If an engine does fail on someone though, i would hope as hell the person lives to tell the story to their grand children.
What do you think he did? Short field or soft field t/o? It looks like he did a short field without holding the breaks at the beginning. I am saying this because a soft field requires the pilot to pull their aileron back at the start of the take off, but you can see that his elevator was level on his run.
It would be awesome to fly in this kind of terrain.. Jealous.
@MrJasonpark86 No, look at the elevator carefully. Pilot had the yoke in his lap. STUDENT PILOTS TAKE NOTE: THIS IS A TEXTBOOK EXAMPLE OF A SOFT FIELD TAKE OFF. EXAMPLES DO NOT GET BETTE THAN THIS. Most shot fields will be soft and vice versa.
@Sukhoi27K He didn't pull up until he was way too close to the trees. The elevator was not in his lap until the actual hard pull up. Looked like he might have been over weight. At least he started the take off roll with flaps (20 degrees?). Without flaps, he would have been in the trees...
@TheBrooksteer - pulling up too early induces drag and increases ground roll. He had plenty of energy when he got to the trees otherwise he wouldn't have been able to bank/climb like that. Looks like fun!
No, he's just putting on a show. Lift-off would be very near best-angle speed and the abrupt pull-up would be a huge risk at 5 mph above stall. But nice water splashes on the roll.

Nice Takeoff! The landing video is Sick too. That's the type of flying I want to do and hope to do in the near future. Best wishes to you and your dad.
what happened to holding brakes and applying power to full? And that aircraft did not have much weight onboard or that kind of turn after takeoff would of been impossible..
@Kopihucky you would apply full power on brakes only while doing a short field, not usually soft field. the whole point of soft field is you dont want the tires to sink in so you never wanna bring the aircraft to a stop.
@Kopihucky - Holding power, etc. is for a SHORT field....not for a field that is both short and SOFT (mud). WHen you hold the brakes like that, the airplane wheels could get dug down into the mud and the airplane could remain stuck there when you release brakes. Its recommended that you keep the plane moving at all times on a soft field takeoff.
@Outermarker01 lol i done shit like this before, eastern seattle, landing up-hill takeing off cliffs in sierra leone and so on..., still nice take off
I am a commercial airline pilot who has been flying most of my life. I've flown cessna's, gliders, to large jets. I can tell just by the way that guy was blasting down the runway, he knew what the heck he was doing! This kindof flying is what pilots call "real flying" of which I have the utmost respect. It takes courage to launch from a grass runway with puddles, mud, potholes, trees and rising terrain at the end of the runway with a fully loaded single engine cessna.

That's insane. I'd be out there with a trowel trying to smooth out that runway as much as possible. Maybe lengthen the uphill end of the runway a few feet every time I was there. Try and make the takeoff a little less hairy, if possible. Great vid!
celui ki di kil naime pas ce decollage, il ne connait rien en pilotage!car le pilote pouvait bien decoller, bien avant la fin de la piste, mais il a mis le paquet pr gagner le plus de vitesse, et des kil a pris a peine 10 pieds du sol, il vire a gauche, avec une inclinaison ki depasse a mon avis les 45 degres. Bravo pr ce decollage!
@prisma551 Tu as raison. Le gars est resté dans l'effet de sol, pour gagner de la vitesse, avant de commencer la montée et de virer à gauche pour eviter les obstacles en fin de piste.

Nice job not buying the farm there. That's one hell of a risk just to bring some free medicine into a remote village. All it takes is a 10 mph tailwind to really screw up your day in a situation such as this.
thank you to your father for what he does, and must say, DAMN hes got some balls, that is a one shot takeoff. its committing to go, cause if not fast enough, then you will die. cause not enough time to stop either. your father has skill. ALOT of skill
Typically yeah, much more of a climb out rate but seeing as how remote the airport is and the village, he was probably super loaded with supplies and such like that. Therefore longer time to get up quicker.
@Musterhund since it was a short/soft field, he had to put the cessna into ground effect...that is where he flies straight down the runway and speeds up to get a faster and steeper climb..he did a great job
@gypsykingg The idiot here is you. Obviously not a pilot except in your sim dreams. Why would the nose gear not be in the ground until rotation? Moron. Rotation is defined by the nose gear coming off the ground you flipping idiot. Stick to your sims.
@PhrynosomaTexas Hmm really.. Well this "sim" pilot knows a lot more about soft field takeoffs than yourself. You might want to review soft field takeoff procedures, moron.
@gypsykingg Hmmm, really? Well seeing as how I had a short grass strip in my fucking back yard outside of Houston you retard, I kinda DOUBT IT. There I flew a Fisher Super Koala in and out of a 200 yard strip bracketed by cattle fence, with 80ft pines and a lake at the west threshold, and houses and pines to the east. Now tell me again what the fuck you know of short field? LOL Retard. Answer me this - how does someone rotate an aircraft and still keep the nose wheel on the ground???
@gypsykingg further, he was rotated before he passed the camera & cleared the ground just after. Any attempt to rotate before that would have increased AoA and drag and made likely NOT making it out of this field. Your method would have led to inefficient gain of airspeed for a C182 to make it out of here. This pilot obtained maximum speed, stayed in ground effect with low AoA and converted that energy into lift at the end to clear obstacles. I'm sure you could have done it better though. LOL
@PhrynosomaTexas Seeing that that is a tail dragger, your soft field takeoffs will be completely different. You want to get the nose gear off asap, keep it there until the mains are in the air, keep in ground effect and accelerate to Vx then climb out at Vx to clear the obstacle. You are a dumb puddle jumper who has never flown a real aircraft. Go fuck yourself kid, you know nothing of flying. And I don't know any pilot who measures in yards. You are a dumb ass.
@gypsykingg Of course it's a tail dragger, and it's not the only plane I've flown numbnuts. The dumbass here is you, who thinks he could have gotten a nose wheel off any faster, and doesn't have a fucking clue what a "rotation" is. I have asked you once, oh great sim pilot, tell me how one rotates an aircraft while keeping the nose gear on the ground? You think this pilot was stupid in keeping the nose gear down until rotation, indicating clearly you don't know what the fuck a rotation IS.
Only one thing to say during a take off like that. Weeeeee!!

Well I think that plane must have been quite heavy, considering the weight of the pilot's balls....

I am a commercial airline pilot who has been flying most of my life. I've flown cessna's, gliders, to large jets. I can tell just by the way that guy was blasting down the runway, he knew what the heck he was doing! This kindof flying is what pilots call "real flying" of which I have the utmost respect. It takes courage to launch from a grass runway with puddles, mud, potholes, trees and rising terrain at the end of the runway with a fully loaded single engine cessna.

JayWhy1952 8 months ago
That's insane. I'd be out there with a trowel trying to smooth out that runway as much as possible. Maybe lengthen the uphill end of the runway a few feet every time I was there. Try and make the takeoff a little less hairy, if possible. Great vid!

celui ki di kil naime pas ce decollage, il ne connait rien en pilotage!car le pilote pouvait bien decoller, bien avant la fin de la piste, mais il a mis le paquet pr gagner le plus de vitesse, et des kil a pris a peine 10 pieds du sol, il vire a gauche, avec une inclinaison ki depasse a mon avis les 45 degres. Bravo pr ce decollage!
prisma551 9 months ago
@prisma551 Tu as raison. Le gars est resté dans l'effet de sol, pour gagner de la vitesse, avant de commencer la montée et de virer à gauche pour eviter les obstacles en fin de piste.

Nice job not buying the farm there. That's one hell of a risk just to bring some free medicine into a remote village. All it takes is a 10 mph tailwind to really screw up your day in a situation such as this.

thank you to your father for what he does, and must say, DAMN hes got some balls, that is a one shot takeoff. its committing to go, cause if not fast enough, then you will die. cause not enough time to stop either. your father has skill. ALOT of skill

that was close! Doesen´t have a Cessna more power to climb steeper?
Musterhund 10 months ago
Typically yeah, much more of a climb out rate but seeing as how remote the airport is and the village, he was probably super loaded with supplies and such like that. Therefore longer time to get up quicker.
Gh0stH5wk 10 months ago
@Musterhund since it was a short/soft field, he had to put the cessna into ground effect...that is where he flies straight down the runway and speeds up to get a faster and steeper climb..he did a great job
LittleDrummer55 10 months ago 32
@LittleDrummer55 Great job huh? Mind explaining why his nose wheel was on the ground until rotation? You are an idiot just like this pilot.
gypsykingg 5 months ago
@gypsykingg The idiot here is you. Obviously not a pilot except in your sim dreams. Why would the nose gear not be in the ground until rotation? Moron. Rotation is defined by the nose gear coming off the ground you flipping idiot. Stick to your sims.
PhrynosomaTexas 5 months ago
@PhrynosomaTexas Hmm really.. Well this "sim" pilot knows a lot more about soft field takeoffs than yourself. You might want to review soft field takeoff procedures, moron.
gypsykingg 5 months ago
@gypsykingg Hmmm, really? Well seeing as how I had a short grass strip in my fucking back yard outside of Houston you retard, I kinda DOUBT IT. There I flew a Fisher Super Koala in and out of a 200 yard strip bracketed by cattle fence, with 80ft pines and a lake at the west threshold, and houses and pines to the east. Now tell me again what the fuck you know of short field? LOL Retard. Answer me this - how does someone rotate an aircraft and still keep the nose wheel on the ground???
PhrynosomaTexas 5 months ago
@gypsykingg further, he was rotated before he passed the camera & cleared the ground just after. Any attempt to rotate before that would have increased AoA and drag and made likely NOT making it out of this field. Your method would have led to inefficient gain of airspeed for a C182 to make it out of here. This pilot obtained maximum speed, stayed in ground effect with low AoA and converted that energy into lift at the end to clear obstacles. I'm sure you could have done it better though. LOL
PhrynosomaTexas 5 months ago
@PhrynosomaTexas Seeing that that is a tail dragger, your soft field takeoffs will be completely different. You want to get the nose gear off asap, keep it there until the mains are in the air, keep in ground effect and accelerate to Vx then climb out at Vx to clear the obstacle. You are a dumb puddle jumper who has never flown a real aircraft. Go fuck yourself kid, you know nothing of flying. And I don't know any pilot who measures in yards. You are a dumb ass.
gypsykingg 5 months ago
@gypsykingg Of course it's a tail dragger, and it's not the only plane I've flown numbnuts. The dumbass here is you, who thinks he could have gotten a nose wheel off any faster, and doesn't have a fucking clue what a "rotation" is. I have asked you once, oh great sim pilot, tell me how one rotates an aircraft while keeping the nose gear on the ground? You think this pilot was stupid in keeping the nose gear down until rotation, indicating clearly you don't know what the fuck a rotation IS.
