I didn’t fly many hours after getting my license, but this was the part of flying I miss the most.

Nice slip! A little late on getting the engine back up but, well done!

and 4th pilot error, if you didnt slow down so much, you didnt have to add that big blast of power to compensate for your 4th pilot error. Failed. You dont use power on Forward Slips..

My aerobatics And EFATO CFI said this is very stupid. First, you dont do too slow turns from base, 2nd, you dont do too slow Forward Slips when turbulence 3rd you did it to the wrong side. 3 huge student pilot errors. You Failed the test..

I had to do this on my first solo. Yikes!

Good job. I've done a similarly steep slip on landing in a sailplane.

I grew up in a Piper Cub J5 and that is how one does it. I rather prefer slipping over the use of flaps. The pilot can increase or decrease the slip as he/she pleases during the final approach to landing. I'd like to see some more of your J5 videos to bring back old memories.

Is that Piper a high wing?

Piper J5VTOL

Looks like FULL right rudder and ailerons as appropriate - nice!!!

I slipped A LOT with gliders, but wasn't stressed at all getting SEL. Then tailwheel endorsement in a Citabria, slipping is everything. So much more glidepath control and so fun!

Good job Jason from Sams mom!!❤

I’m an old grounded cub pilot. Thank you for allowing me to relive good times… and well done!

The Slip is the fastest way to drop altitude………..

Nice landing

Love slipping my T Craft. Turn that wide wing sideways and it drops like a very controlled rock at about 40mph or less. Quickly straightened out at the bottom and back to flying.

TOP 👍👍👍

Skills....

wow

Who ever does a slip with the up wind wing high??🤡

Slips are hands down my most favorite maneuver. Once slipped a Cherokee to loose about 1000ft to land on a grass strip. Fun!

Excellent video, Bro! Can i use it as part of my video for my channel? You will be credited in the video. and you get a backlink to your original video in my description.thanks

Fuck me. Im still struggling to put it down in calm conditions, this is just mind-blowing. I'll get there but god damn learning to fly is one hell of an undertaking

Well done!

That's not a steep slip. I can still see sky out the window and the passenger's not screaming!😅

This guy has done that before…

Needed for all emergency landings. If in a turn use top rudder only.

I've used the _Express Elevator_ technique hundreds of times in my Skyhawk. It's quite a bit of fun.

Now that’s flying

A slip to landing is part of your training, for the rating. Tailwheels are easier to manage than tricycle gear. You can lose altitude faster, for more options should you have an emergency. I absolutely love tailwheels !

I do this in msfs.

That takes a lot of practice!

I did this in a Talorcraft but watch the speed. A stall in this configuration can end up in a spin.

Well done, young man. Thanks for doing the math on the angle of descent. I knew it was up there pretty high. I bet it felt nearly like a vertical landing. Nice touch on the throttle.

Congratulations on not groundlooping it! Not really a landing that I would like to try, but you got to take what you can get!

Nice

Beautiful slip. I have done slips landing my RC glider numerous times during spot landing contests, safer than overshoot landing spot or stick nose in and likely break something. Done same with RC power plane, works same as full size except you won't injure yourself if you really screw up ! Bruce W

Damn, that is a next level side-slip! I used to love doing that, but never from that height.

❤

amazing skill, Crab landing

Nice landing. (1) the pilot can walk away, and (2) most of the parts can be reused. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying

Mobile home park at the end of a runway .. I've seen this before. Not unusual actually.

I think the fron seater is pondering deeply the difference between a “steep slip” and a “fiery crash”😂

Sweet!

The nose attitude was slightly high though…

I learned it on the glider, wing under wind, opposite rudder. Because of angle and turbulence the instruments are not showing right values, especially IAS, so you need to feel it, thus training. And because of glider, you cannot go around 🙂

Stunning footage ! Do you mind if I use this clip in one of my videos ? Of course , link will be given to your original video in the description.

I am a microlight student, started solo training. Recent at home airport (EHST little grass strip uncontrolled) circuit training in the C42 I did exactly what you did. Instructor let me do it but afterwards strongly advized against steep forward slip unless really needed. Because of possible incorrect IAS reading due to position of the static port. And thus the risk of stalling while low altitude especially when winds are gusting. Advice was: if too high for landing: dont do forward slip but go around. I can imagine that in some mountain airports that is not a possibility. But the Netherlands is very flat. Apart from that : with flaps 2 the C42 can descend steep anyway with just nose pointing forward. (Forward slipping feels nice though). At another airport (EHHO) I saw an old warbird sideslipping, he was not high and did not seem fast, but I guess it is easier with a taildragger and high pitched nose to see the runway that way?

Beautiful !! 👍

that's just a normal approach in my Cessna 150 with flaps.
