short STOL landing

[kiaiswan]

That's a lot of wind

[kazbon0515]

空母からの発艦はスチームの力で瞬間的に離陸可能速度まで加速さ­せるんで、強風の向かい風とはちょと違う気がする。

昔強風の中でラジコンの飛行機飛ばしたときに、同じ現象や上空で­バックした経験があった＾＾

降ろそうと思ってもどんどん遠ざかっていくので、さすがに慌てた­なー・・・＾＾；

@kazbon0515

camomaniasさんはカタパルトの事じゃなくて巡航してる­かどうかの事を言ったんじゃないかな？

艦隊の巡航速度は大体18ノット。18ノットで移動してるなら向­風18ノットになる。さらに、風がある場合は基本的に艦首をその­方向に向けるのでさらに風は強くなる。そういう事を言ってるので­は？

知ったかしてごめんなサイ。わざわざレスして炭増せん

[kazbon0515]

@zclass37

確かにそういう意味でなら理論的には合ってますね。僕のほうこそ­余計なコメしてすみませんでした。

ただ風速の場合はたいてい秒速で言うし速度の場合は時速だから、­計算上時速18ノットと言うと秒速に直せば10ｍ以下ですからね­。

戦闘機が離陸するには巡航の向かい風だけではどうなのかなという­気もしないではないです。

もちろん強風下で艦首を風上に向けて巡航すればもっと効果が上が­るだろうし、実際にはそういったことも補助的に活用しながら運用­しているのでしょうけどね。

ただ現実的に台風並みの暴風の中で発艦することがあるかと考えれ­ば、それもちょっと疑問だし・・・？



[camomanias]

18ノットの向かい風なら風速32m以上。ほとんど滑走しないで­離陸できる。空母からの発艦と同じ理屈。しかし実際にみるとすご­いな。

[syanxjp2]

ルパン三世にでも出てきそう

[kazbon0515]

あの軽量機なら向かい風風速30ｍ以上（時速百数十Km程度）な­ら滑走せずに浮くだろう。

空中を飛行中ならほとんどホバリング状態も可能だろうね。（もし­かしたらバックも？）w

[agesperfume]

動きがヘナヘナ過ぎてワロタ

[SORAPAPAGOGO]

すごい向かい風だからですね。

[130cmlove]

向かい風だからじゃないか？

[offwhite99]

そうとう風が強いんだね。

[rinapontan]

すごいな。

[yossuy3122]

軽量機で向かい風だからかな

[thiagov6123]

ummm what???

[xxmarauder]

unbelievable

[cCcTuraniacCc]

THERE MUST BE VERY STRONG HEAD WIND

[737pilot7]

Thats crazy how he puts the flaps down really quick the retracts them for take off

[rox1317]

With this kind of wind you would probably take off by just making wings with your arms!!

[zhekov76]

columbian drug dealers dream !!

[zhekov76]

columbian drog dealers dream !!

[slimquattro]

£ukin hell, thats amazing.

[TheNickARobinson]

Lol, what's the wind speed at that site!

[MythOfEchelon]

Why am I seeing so many of these videos lately?

[Neojzx26]

this is AWESOME.

[haddib]

He could go to wal-mart and just land in a parking space.

[RDCST]

That's the old "Big Wheels" Jhonny. :P

With that wheels you don't need dampers, you can float in the middle of the sea even.

[EnigmaNZ1]

The extra hp helps to quickly get to airspeed, 210hp instead of much less as standard

[snake3hm]

head wind

dumbass

[jockeleu]

how is this possible?

[BilldalSWE]

@jockeleu because of the strong wind of 18knt. An airplane achieves lift when enough air passes below the wings. Usually this is accomplished with accelerating the aircraft to a certain speed but in this case the strong wind is doing the work instead.

[IheartMount]

@BilldalSWE

Generally it's a lot more to do with air passing OVER the wings. The top of the wings deflect air down, causing lift. That's why aircraft can carry weopons, engines or fuel tanks under the wing, yet still gain significant lift from the clear top surface of the wing. But yeah, a strong headwind definitely helps

[jockeleu]

@BilldalSWE Cool, thanks for the info =)... So it's like when birds "hover" i guess.

[lloranld]

Hallucinant

[siradambeck]

An example of why an airplane on a conveyer belt can take off.

[a6snoil]

Amazing, absolutely amazing!

[ARealWiseGuys]

Moving cargo in Alaska is the goal, so isn't it really about the shortest runway with a loaded plane and no wind or hill in your favor?  This really only highlights a cool stunt, not the best pilot & plane.

[lauroga]

that's a horizontal helicopter. LOL :D

[sin5k4]

i love these cubs on tundra wheels...

[pro4444]

seems the wind speed so fast

[Imakeplanesboom]

Still, at 18 knots, thats pretty good.

[wildirishtime]

Fantasic keep it up! CRAZEDpilot . com

[GEEZERKLIPS]

WOW!!!!

[Pharrmer]

Knots are nautical miles/hour so 18 knots is 33 kilometers/HOUR.

[guim817]

Digne d'un décollage de porte avion !

[plokoonpma]

For those who wonder.. 18 knots = 33 kilometers.

That is the wind speed at the site.

The aircraft is heavily modified Super Cub and will compete in the town of Valdez (Alaska) for the short take off prize that is measured in tens of feet rather than the hundreds.

[lancetonsow]

18kts.. those must be some ultra light aircraft

[lancetonsow]

how strong was the headwind?

[Kom3tBrawl]

What was the wind speed there?

[rjc862003]

thats some serious motor in that craft

that aint no head wind thats all motor

[rjc862003]

thats some serious motor in that craft

[NorthForkFisherman]

What was your weight and balance config for this? Dump the tundra tires and you'll probably go shorter in similar conditions.

[moot349]

This thing could take off in place in the wind generated by a Harrier doing a vertical takeoff nearby.

[hitachiota]

thats insane!

[skategirlc]

take that helicopter lovers...

[shadowbird42333]

What a headwind.

[LooNuHH]

The plane is built by them, and it was probably built to be VERY light and to be able to take advantage of very strong winds.

In normal weather conditions, I don`t think that engine has enough power to do such a lift off if the plane was manned or heavy enough.

[TonyAirlines]

I wish my Piper Warrior could do that...

[Arxces]

Someone should get a Harrier jump jet and troll them :D

[DenizenoftheInternet]

@Arxces Akshully, A Harrier? I think it would go more like "lol yours cost $30M mine cost $5k. U jelly government?"

[spiritofthewolf15x]

That is so awesome!

[tradbowseven]

listen to the wind, took off like a kite due to the fast wind.

[artistgmg]

Just heard about this on the radio. Wow, I wonder if he filled the plane with helium lol.

[Teslastyle]

How is that take-off even possible? That looks like a video-game take-off.

[mark1avia]

zero wind....????...LOL

[DrD0000M]

HAAAAAXXXXXXXX!!!!

[Dongshow]

wow, very very impressive.

[drummondjames]

Never seen that before! Good job!
