Crashes plane “No no this was all on purpose for entertainment purposes” Yeah yeah, sure sure 😆🤙

*anti climax*

that's what happens when ya act like an hysterical bitch....

@@seahippies crop duster pilots are the best. Low and loaded hard maneuvering every dam day. You idiot dont know what is to crash and not your fault.. Shut up bichttttt

I guess he was angry after being safe after the crash and having an injury for a dumb reason

5feetgoaround fullflapsC150 hahaha your a whiny bitch too!!! It takes all kinds

I had to google it and all the plane had wheels on the bottom, so you might be right

You cann copy thtss conntrol you fliyiing

Lolll

Needs one of those bumper stickers that says "if you can read this flip over"

Keep the dirty side down and the sky side up... Be it Plane, Drone or Car.. They work better that way...

Wily Coyote you soloed a week into your training? Lol

Do you mind me asking was it expensive for lessons? Living in Ireland I know there will be a difference in price. But I was hoping to get a general price of what it should cost. I wanted to fly since I was a child but just couldn't afford it. Now I'm nearly 40 it's now or never. I have great respect for you swimming away from a crash and then going getting a licence. Most people would have run a mile. Good on you buddy.

@@kevinkeating9090 I was in a flying club many years ago where as co-owner of the planes, the costs of planes and instructors were the lowest. Where there is a will there is a way.

@@wilycoyote5360 I sure do hope I can make it too. Biggest dream I ever had was to fly.

@@kevinkeating9090 you should look into untralights. I dont know how it works in Ireland but in America no lisence required. Training in ultralights is cheaper as well

Can you give some more information about this? Sometimes i fly a Rotax 912 powered machine, does this still apply?

As a CFI: "I don't know what an AD is.." scares the crap out of me. Especially coming from an aircraft owner.

@@rubberbrush that's not what he said though. He didn't know what AD stands for, not what they are.

Omg 😂😂😂😂 just like vietnam war

No.... maybe you should consider a bicycle! Give pilots a bad name.

Tanks

or a Party 😁

AMG Black bicycles are reeeeeally dangerous tho.

Hopefully not a speedboat just joking are not ,maybe he turned over a new Leaf of good luck hopefully I've watched two videos of his bad luck and both

Why don't you have slow flyer (stacked wings ?) ..It's much safer to do landing and take off from rough places I suppose ...

man i would of shit my pants

@@TheDepreys I suspect your sphincter wouldn't have time to react, but if you did, inverted... it doesn't even bear thinking about.

Question: when you returned you had a tarmac runway but you landed on dirt. Why??

@@totilsom Big bouncy tires. Easier to land off the runway. Also side note: No part of the airport environment is called the tarmac, nor is it made with tarmac (anymore). Hasn't been for decades.

And stop using vacuum pumps.

Not much for an alternative when you're taking off.

imagine crashing Draco and sharing that!!

Not quite. You have to take it apart and inspect it. Not rebuild it. Ask me how I know.

@Zeksteve Ah, if they do, then they can get away with it...also, I found out from some pilot buddies that as it's experimental, they don't have to do a complete tear down as one would with a 'regular' plane.

I had a similar thought. Maybe because the engine had quit before the flip and subsequent prop strike he figured there was unlikely to be any internal damage? Seemed pretty ballsy to fly it right out of there to me. But what other option did he have anyway lol backcountry at its best. Gotta be able to pull off a fierce rescue

it wasnt a hydro lock mister expert, if it was the engine would NOT have started and ran. although you should turn mags off and rotate prop a few engine revolutions.

@@cgosgosney4869 no shit, Sherlock. The whole point of my post was advice to check first and make sure before you start cranking on it, Einstein.

@@cgosgosney4869 I think you completely missed what he was trying to say. When you have an engine that's really hot, and you turn it upside down, everything is so expanded (and the oil is thinner because it's hot), the oil will seep past the rings and into the combustion chamber. So you pull out the plugs and crank the engine to ensure that any excess oil gets thrown out of the cylinders to prevent a hydro-lock.

@@funkyzero well the comment kind of leads on like thats why the situation happened. it clearly wasnt any of us who have been around engines knows this much. my comment was an add on not trying to be sarcastic with the mister expert line although it may have seemed that way

@@ChaseB1896 probably i thought he meant that thats why the failure happened

I dont know. If you kept crashing my planes and walking away I think I would let you keep walking and not come back.

Dan Murphy it wasn’t a landing.

@@clwomble a crash Landing.

Dan Murphy yepp good landing.. could have ended up flipping over in the water.. plane looks fine so there’s that too

Any takeoff you can walk away from isn’t a takeoff.

Yes.

GA rules don't apply for Experimental. New prop, kick the tyres light the fires... 😉

I certainly wouldn't have flown it without checking it more thoroughly myself. Even if the rules state that no inspection is necessary, it's still a smart thing to do.

Also AD's are put out for a reason...

@Chris Richardson It's fine. If they had more beer, he could have flown it home with the broken prop. Another reminder to always have enough beer with you when going bush flying.

@@realitycheck3363 8hrs bottle to throttle and yer all gud!

I think ill add a electric pump also! thanks!

Twin electric pumps with return is the way to go. Impossible to vapour lock flowing fuel. Twin because it’s an airplane!

That's why I will only ever fly RC and not step foot in a god damn plane. Long Trek FPV's give me that satisfaction without the minute risk of catastrophic failure. I can walk away from an incident like this on an LR-FPV on an RC but only 1 fleshy body. Props to all the aviators included my Pa out there. But I will never set foot on a plane unless crossing the oceans. Even then I need to be sedated heavily to avoid a ruckus. I think I know why so many people are drunkards while on planes.

haha, nice comment. Made me laugh!

Ask Mike Patey his opinion on non-runway departures. He ground-looped Draco trying to take off in a crosswind on the active runway when he literally could've taken off in the width of the runway into the headwind. That was at a controlled airport, though. From a legality perspective, helicopters and ultralights frequently depart and land off-runway at small, uncontrolled airports. FAR 91.13 and 91.119 are gonna the be "gotcha" for things like that. If you don't overfly people/property at low altitude and you don't create any hazards or otherwise recklessly operate your plane, then I don't think there's any issues. My personal opinion is that a few of the on-road landings have been in less than ideal locations, and the apron departure was perceptibly unprofessional, yet ostensibly safer than ground looping it on the runway. The Draco crash probably played into the decision making on that which makes it very understandable. Perhaps he got some pressure from the FAA and that's why he ditched the Kitfox a year ago?

haha yeah that's the same dude

Smart ass 😂😂😂😂

Thanks!

Yes, of course I did! all checked out.

He should have whittled a new prop out of that driftwood. Now that's back country fellas.

av8r3400 Of course it checked out fine because it wasn’t a true prop strike. 😁👍🏼

I wouldn't have even bothered. Prop was fully stopped when it touched the ground. I MIGHT have put a run-out gauge on the output shaft, but that's it.

@@nightwaves3203 through the gearbox

Aviation gas rarely vapor locks. However, from personal experience, when running car gas there were two obvious problems I noticed: the mixture control always had to be set richer to obtain the same power as aviation gas which indicated that car gas isn't as dense as aviation gas. The other problem was that after landing the engine has to be allowed to cool or there would be a vapor lock problem if the engine was restarted too soon. What happened was we had landed at Marysville Airport in California to eat at the airport restaurant one hot summer day. There was a for sale sign on the closesd restaurant door. We jumped back into the plane, taxied out, and took off. Two things happened simultaneously upon passing the end of the runway: the engine started sputtering, and a wasp came buzzing into the cockpit from the right air vent. What else could go wrong? After about 15 seconds the engine cleared, power resumed, and my wife smashed the wasp with a Kleenex. It was an interesting flight. After that I only took off on the tank with aviation gas.

I drove an old vw karmanghia and a bug they never vapor locked.....vapor lock is an excuse for ignorance this guy is dangerous af

@@douglasrodrigues9329 the difference in av gas and auto gas is octane.... then governor Davis came along and his brother got contacts to dump toxic waste into gasoline they passed laws requiring ethanol and in that law other things were allowed to be dumped .....cars and trucks (they dumped toxics into diesel too) started breaking down in excessive masses and only in Calif they still dump toxic waste into gas .....corruption in Calif is terrible...... because of demon rats..... it used to be a gasoline Coleman stove burned clean now they plug up terribly..... but still vapor lock is almost always what people blame on what they don't know...... you'r aircraft must likely did not stutter from vapour lock ..... more likely was detonation from over heating.... vapor lock and carburetors are the things that non mechanics blame stuttering engines on.....carburetors do not vapor lock they are designed not to.... if an engine stutters its because of timing or primary electrical system 90 percent of the time..... in an aircraft application altitude will cause rich mixture which can cause flooding if not adjusted.....I don't think many pilots can explain how mixture should be adjusted for their aircraft..... if v you run lean your engine will heat and if head temps exceed recommended you will likely experience loss of power from detonation if to rich you will lose power from the extra fuel using space for air and also causing hydraulic action because its liquid and not a gas and the excess fuel drowns spark shorting it to ground just as if you touch a screwdriver to the top of the plug erratically ..... you're stutter was probably caused by the engine heating causing intake air to be heated thinner and so you were running rich .... anyway vapor lock is the excuse given by those that do not know engines and those that think they do... no offense intended just education..... most describe vapor lock just like this guy that crashed that's not what happens vapor lock is the fuel in the float bowl boiling and vaporizing the block has to be extremely hot for this to happen..... now if you have a fuel line with a pin hole in it you can get air in the system which will cause a fuel pump to not properly function .....a fuel pump is a hydraulic pump....air bubbles in hydraulic systems cause failure..... gasoline will boil at between 100 and 400 degrees depends on octane and other additives

@@jolllyroger1 it was vaporlock you fuck.

@Phil M Clothes pins on the fuel line seemed to help too.

that new pump!

@Phil M Almost is an understatement

MUCKFOOT I hate me too 😂

He blamed this on vapor lock ....vapor lock should never happen..... it's an excuse for ignorance

@@jolllyroger1 what happened then? I'm curious to know

🙌👌

Hey, that sounds a lot like motorcycles off road!! The "Standard Off Road Toolkit" was 2 rolls of duct tape, 1 roll of bailing wire, a pair of Vise-Grips. ( and nowadays, a Leatherman multi-tool) Extra tools could be added to accommodate your last excursion. ;^)
