HD Video: Bird Strike in X-Plane

[Firbychannel]

Nice!

[TheGordoncd]

i would think in real life the aircraft control tower would tell you that there are birds on the runway.

[Misteroriginalvideos]

I'm playing around with the newly downloaded demo of x-plane at EGLL/LHR and I'm taking off 27L in the BAW772 and all of a sudden I see birds and I'm like "ohhhh s***" and then my windshield was full of blood and my engines dead... 150 feet off the runway.

[ass23ful]

i wanna reinact the hudson river now :D

[SesamaLho]

I think it's kinda hard to controlling cessna 0.0

[TheHighflyeroflondon]

something tells me you didn't use force feedback on your joystick. i had the same problem.

[CmdrGendoIkari]

I still find the C172 more challenging to land just right than most planes because of it's wing design's resistance to stall at a high angle of attack.

[keeevan]

terrible landing, you could easily have lifted off again. In real life landing a cessna at that speed with that much crosswind would mean a very unstable rollout

[CmdrGendoIkari]

@keeevan - He came in much too fast from what I see on the IAS gauge.

[keeevan]

@CmdrGendoIkari yea his approach speed was good for a windy day though

[CmdrGendoIkari]

@keeevan - Yeah, it depends on exactly which direction the wind was coming from, and how strong/gusty. He should have been below the IAS gauge's green arc as he crossed the runway threshold though. You want to be very close to stall (bottom of white arc) as you begin rotation for touchdown. Otherwise, you go to rotate, the C172's lift and drag increases enough to lift back off the runway, and then almost immediately stalls. I'm sure you know this though. Just info for newbies really.

[johnmunoz18]

x plane is so fake

[CmdrGendoIkari]

@johnmunoz18 - So fake that the FAA approves the commercial version of X-Plane 9 to be used for training commercial pilots. Something Microsoft's Flight Sims haven't ever obtained from the FAA.

[johnmunoz18]

@CmdrGendoIkari ok douche bag, x-plane uses some wind tunnel crap physics that arnt as good as FSX or microsoft FLIGHT so therefor, x-plane sucks...the only thing good about x-plane is the realistice runways and the bird strikes

[chris5812341234]

At least you weren't taking off!

[Flight8695]

wow, youve obviously never entered a REAL plane...

[Julman75]

Wtf !? Lol good job though man

[videoguy1845]

bird fail lol

[TheyTookMyWoody]

Awesome video! Just ordered my copy of X-Plane today. Been playing FSX for such a long time, I wanted a simulator that is just different, so I am hoping to find some awesome simulation with X-Plane.

[jjtc100]

wtf lol

[SWATBOSS16]

@jjtc100 i quite agree wtf

[KirkHammettable]

what airport scenery

[bachian]

@KirkHammettable This is Congonhas (SBSP) selfmade scenery.

[KirkHammettable]

good job

[bachian]

@KirkHammettable Thanks!

[MrStrikerable]

@bachian How do you make your own scenery?

[WhiiteOouut08]

fsx should have the bird strike effect

[okiedrummer12]

those birds can come out of nowhere on xplane!

[pilotofa787]

kind of unrealistic, because i dont think a small bird would damage the engine or prop

[bachian]

So, it seems you have never flew a small airplane before. It can be a very serius situation to hit a bird in a Cessna.

[pilotofa787]

i actually saw how these propellors are built, i thought they would be much stronger...but then those cessna engines arent any stronger than your every day american SUV so i guess an interference would mess somthing up 0_0

[ArcanineKing]

@pilotofa787

/watch?v=uYNpB-8_BSo bird nearly damaged a 757's jet engine.

/watch?v=bd57bR8FKKQ CT-155 Hawk fighter crashes after a bird hits it. >_>; a freaking jet fighter.

[thegrant1991]

it took out a 767 on flight sim landed 1 engine in heavy crosswinds after 6 hour flight-i nearly spent 5.30 hours of my life to nearly crash and 30 mins of manual flight to screw up-but im good so... :)

[Silencer84]

@bachian

yeah with that speed: its the speed the bird is flying at PLUS the speed of the plane so that is one hell of an impact.

[GMSamuelRhine]

@bachian did you engine go out on its own when this happened? because i did the same thing in xplane and my engine kept going until i put it in idle

[diveplane]

@pilotofa787 your comments are utter nonsence birds can cause heavy damage to aircraft.

[Raptor2233]

@pilotofa787

Not even just in a Cessna. Take the Hudson River crash landing for example. An Airbus A320 taken down by birds.

[TheGordoncd]

@pilotofa787 well then learn more about planes

[jwj337]

@pilotofa787 cars are kinda unreaistic because i dont think they run on gasoline

[Firbychannel]

@pilotofa787 I think you're a bit unrealistic.

[srfedecape]

nice vid

[creeperreaper71]

can any 1 tell me which is easier on memory and space. X-plane or

FSX? cuz i have fsx right now and i can only turn up graphics 4 planes only

[bachian]

It depends how much you put the graphic sliders to the maximum.

In geral I think X-Plane demands much less processing power.

[pilotofa787]

it definatly does...i have both, i would know lol

[daviboylo]

fsx is better

[pinin9000]

by far

[rbazzarin]

Tem idéia de quando termina? Vai ser pago? Abs!

[bachian]

Vai ser gratuito, esse e outros que estamos fazendo. Não temos previsão de lançamento, pois fazemos apenas nas horas vagas.

Se quiser saber mais a respeito de criação de cenários, visite fbachian[ponto]com[barra]xplan­e

[rbazzarin]

E esse cenário Felipe? Você que está desenvolvendo? Abs

[EN ON] How about this scenario? Are you the designer? []s

[bachian]

Sim, é o cenário de Congonhas que estou fazendo junto com um amigo.

[pcvsxbox360]

wheres the splattered bird thats ment to be on the window

[tiemji]

Hey great landing even in this conditions. Good vid and great skills

[bachian]

Thanks man!

[flyboyandre]

Cool stuff!!!
