  • Hold on.. lemme get this straight, You are a pilot and a cyclist? dude you are my role model! I am 29 and getting my commercial so I can make aviation my career but cycling will always be my other main hobby. Greetings from southern california.

  • @bugnut82 yes, I like flying and cycling :-) ... greetings from munich.

  • @wildflyer1de warst du schon mal in meinerzhagen (EDKZ) in NRW??

  • @SuperApple1995 ja, war mal auf einem modellflugtag dort, aber leider noch nie mit der cessna, ich fliege eig. immer nach süden, ... in die berge ... :-)

  • Viel zu flach. Für kurze Landungen muss man nicht flach anfliegen. Das würde ich mir schnell wieder abgewöhnen.

  • @chloratum es sieht im video flacher aus, als es in wirklichkeit war ...

  • nice video but a fairly low approach, even though the runway is short try not to come in so low it's a bad habit to get into. Maybe a strong, sudden gust and you are in the trees.

  • Don't want to be rude but you shouldn't be so reckless - aim further down the runway and don't skim the grass.

see all

  • Very good. Do they have to do a low approach like this? Aren't they able to make a rapid descent?`

  • You touched down before the thresh-hold of the runway. That is not good. You can still land on a short runway without doing what you did. It's called a short field landing. You come in slow and with lots of flaps. When you flare on a short field landing you will essential hit and roll a bit and stop. It can be done without doing what you did which was dangerous.

  • to low of approach....just insane why u choose to do that as that airport is not bad at all...

  • I've landed on way worse... You need to steepen your approach and try no to touch down that early, you had lots of room and wouldn't have needed any brakes.

    But you got it down without bending anything and that's what counts

  • Sehr schönes Video!

  • not a good approach

  • How long is that airfield?

  • @10dthompson60 you dont say? lawl...

  • did you use full flaps?

  • @hsguitarist because light props have reverse thrust and autobrake, except they don't.
