  • The problem with these short landings they get quite expensive.

  • I remember seeing this on the evening news... Honestly I think the airshow announcer (that this guy talks over) said "Bit of a rough landing!" in typical British understatement! 

  • Bravo Bravo....outstanding.

  • EMT-1:A Beta steep approach, achieved using zero/negative propeller pitch, is certainly impressive, which is just what's needed for an airshow, but it turned into a spectacular but not particularly impressive landing! A real show stopper & a hard act to follow! I replayed my VCR recording of this several times back in 1984. An interesting fact emerged, which was the sudden burst of power that could be easily heard on the original sound track & which can just be heard here at 0:26.(cont at EMT-2)

  • EMT-2: It occurred just as the nose-down attitude changed immediately before the a/c hit the deck. The reduced nose-low attitude & positive pitch power application was what was needed to kill the massive rate of descent, but the pilot left it far too late! Now watch another screwed-up landing which also ends in a rather spectacular fashion. Click on the "EntertainMeThai" name below then on "Landing Accident-Rarely Seen Bouncing or Porpoising".

  • Well, at least he did do what he was trying to do (a short landing)

  • in New Zealand we'd just say ....Bugger

    

  • That's some strong airframe.

  • And the wheels still flies after the stop, Amazing!

  • what!

    it was a very short landing.
