OH i watched carefully one more time and see that little white thing? thats the brs and it was parcially out. this pilot is an idiot (no offense) he obiously didnt do a pre flight aircraft check (sigh) this is why people think these are unsafe when they really arnt ya just hear about it everytime one does crash do you hear "59 people were in a car crash today" no you hear once in a month that an aircraft has crashed. its alot safer up there if you know what you are doing.
Wow this looks bad. Can you give anymore details? Did the pilot survive? Did the BRS somehow deploy without being fired? A little higher and he could have just cut the engine and come down via BRS, a little sooner and he could have aborted the takeoff.
@JEFFC1958 yah he hit the brs by mistake or thats what it looks like because they cant just "depoly" without somone messing with it. did you see his rate of climb he was totally unaware. im 100% sure hes just fine because those have a great safety cage. Im sure hes not feeling to great with that impact. no the brs is a great system it doent just fail on yah like that.
Would have been neat if he made it all the way around
