Cessna 152 engine surge! diverts and lands at closed Naval Station

He landed safely, narrowly avoiding stray Mythbusters 😂

I was one in front of some AF fighters warming up ready for the daily sorties, when to my surprise a Beechcraft or similar rolled up behind them on the taxiway. Some guy flying his family lost power and the AF tower told him to go elsewhere but he said I gotta land and used a taxiway. Then I saw them all getting out of the plane and security all over around them.

My little brother was stationed there in HM-15. He was a Naval Aircrewman and was supposed to fly but had an appointment that day so someone else took his seat. He lost 2 good friends that day. He also participated in helping out after the Loma Prieta earthquake. My little brother is damaged mentally from those two incidents.

This tail number has had three emergencies in the span of a year, good grief😂. This thing needs to be junked. It’s cursed. Twice in concord and now Oakland yikes

Your captions are full of errors. PIREP, untowered not unpowered. Etc.

stay in tension?!?!😄

[@Tommyr44]

I enjoy these videos. But its pretty obvious whoever makes the subtitles doesn't know pilot lingo. Lots of typos on words that would be obvious to a pilot or someone who works in atc. for example stay in tension was actually say intentions.

[@slates010]

Been in this same situation. Not fun! Had to declare an emergency and divert

Phoenix Sky Harbor Tower in the thumbnail. 👍

how does a piston engine surge? is this AI bs?

[@Darkvirgo88xx]

In their defense the pilot said the engine was surging which I assume is a misfire since its a piston engine.

Did he ever think to turn the carb heat on.

My dad used to fly these and had the same question
