While flying an R/C Model of a Yak-54, the wing failed. Jim brings the plane down safely. More details at my RCGroups blog: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/member.php?u=486

  • AWESOME PILOT!!! And WHY IN THE HECK DOES EVERYONE WANT TO SAY ALL THESE ONE WING LANDINGS ARE FAKE?!? THEY JUST KNOW THAT THEY ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO DO IT IF THEY EVER HAD TO. THAT'S ALL IT IS.

  • @wjkssmd Its similar but not completely like knifeedge. Stabilizer becomes more like an aileron. Most critical point is before toucdown where you have to level the wing. Best thing to do is to practice it in RealFlight.

  • Just practice knife edge flying... then if it ever happens to you, you will be able to land it... I lost one wing one time, but the plane was a trainer, and unable to knife edge... still I tried.

  • I loved my H-9 Cardin Yak... Nice flying plane ( And great landing too Jim!)

  • Awesome. If that happened to me I would have landed shrapnel

  • Only one thing to say.Skillz

  • Jim Bourke......very Irish name?is he?

  • i dont know why but this looks too much alike bill hempel's one wing landing video...

  • omg!!!! how did u snap the wing tube?????

  • when you are flying real planes let me know what airline so I can request a flight with you as the pilot :-)
