I crash my kitfox airplane ! My aircraft engine dies on takeoff and I was left with an engine out situation and had to preform an emergency landing. Flying off airport, preforming bush flying STOL takeoff and landings.
there were no casualties and I survived. My aircraft runs out of gas fuel during take off. I wasn't high enough to land my airplane on the highway or road. I am not a student pilot.

Most of these guys use non ethanol car gas Also nearly all aircraft that I'm familiar with have a sediment drain/water separator on the fuel bowl. You could drain enough to insure there is no vapor in the lines.. Also insulating the lines to prevent heat soak. 50 yr CP AP here. Never been around a kitfoxes or rotax.

As someone who has also lost an engine on takeoff. Good job in not freaking out! I was fortunate that I had a little more runway in front of me when mine died. I was able to brake hard and get it stopped about 20ft from the end of the runway! Glad the damage wasn’t that bad on the flip. Be sure to double check the vertical tail because it can take a bit of a hit on the flip. Might not be visible at first but something internal might get bent. The last thing you want is to lose that in flight!

Great video and great save! Serious pucker with the water in your face. I noticed the flaps full down. Full flaps on my Kitfox make full brakes problematic because of their resulting dramatic forward pitch (and lighter weight on the brakes). But without full flaps you would have been in the water. I second Rjh's helmet recommendation. Keep flying!

This kind of videos are very valuable. It takes guts to show what and when somethings goes wrong! *kudos* to you! For you this was a *LUCKY* *DAY* ! Everyone watching this video can LEARN from it. Experience is the sum of all the mistakes done... I won't say you stepped too hard on the brakes - who would NOT brake to stop the plane from going into the water? That is just *hindsight* - not a true fault. You made the correct action to brake. The only bad judgement you made was RUSHING it. Had you done everything like the plane had been on ground for days, this would not have happened. This happened BECAUSE you are SKILLED with your plane - and young. *Checklists* make sure skilled pilots slow down... If you rush things you miss things and they will bite back - with some bad luck. Running the engine for a while before takeoff is NOT only to warm the engine, it also makes sure the engine will continue to run, it gives you time to detect any signals, instrument readouts, noise, vibrations that are unusual or not normal. Checklists are not only for beginners to learn to get a license, they are there to remind skilled pilots that gravity is unforgiving, that the checklist is a tool to make it as safe as possible. For you this was a *LUCKY* *DAY* !!! You learned a lot, so did I watching it. Thank you so very much for posting this video! Safe flying!
