Mike Patey (designer and builder of this beast of a plane) is an absolute legend. Shoulder to shoulder with aviation giants like Rutan, Kelly Johnson, Yeager, and Lindberg. Guy is incredible in the air, and the fact that he takes the time to document all his passion projects in insane detail for everyone on youtube makes him one of my personal engineering and aviation heros.

Curious what’s different about this landing versus some of the bush pilots doing pretty much vertical landings? Is it the plane, wind speeds, etc?

[@yamkaw346]

@@etgripper any time you see vertical landings like you’re talking about is only possible with like 35kt head winds. This landing is only really crazy because of the danger involved.

[@nunstersplace]

@@yamkaw346 What danger, Really what danger? What would happen if he went over the edge? Not fall to the earth but continue to fly. It only takes feet for one of these planes to take off. There was 0 and I mean 0% chance of anything bad that was going to happen. You drive faster on the interstates than that plane flies.

[@Gunit867899]

Actually, there was lots of room for errors hence why it took him multiple tries.

[@kaffeetasse9455]

@@Gunit867899 Well only room for certain errors. Coming in too low or overshooting just barely could have ended bad.

[@TesserId]

@@kaffeetasse9455 I agree. If he'd gone of the end or the platform, he had a chance to just go into dive, like he did at the end anyway. I think he'd planned it that way, but it could have gone horribly wrong. And, coming in too low means colliding with the building or the landing pad. Yea, maybe that means he shears off his landing gear and maybe does an endo (end-over-end, landing on it's back), which is survivable (though the plane would be scrap). But, any lower and it would be like hitting the edge of the platform nose on, and then falling to his death, short of the platform. But, maybe you had similar expectations.

There was lots of room for error, as he proved by missing it a couple of times.

[@battery_wattage]

The only difficulty is coming in too low which can be avoided by pulling up and increasing speed. If he overshoots, he can just regain speed. What would make this more interesting is if there was a wall in front. In that case it has to be achieved on first try.

[@benistingray6097]

Love how he balances the plane on the front wheels while braking hard.

[@redbull]

they paid super close attention to the weight distribution under the extreme braking when landing, so that he could balance on the wheels instead of accidentally flipping the plane 😅

[@gregsutton2400]

now every flight simmer will be trying this, well done and well done Mike!

[@GaryMCurran]

Yes, but someone is going to have to come out and offer a redesigned Carbon Cub the way Mike had it set up. I haven't had the opportunity to get with MSFS yet, but I understand the dynamics are much better. But, with the stock Carbon Cub, I'm not sure it would do the landing without ending up on its prop. The model would need to be modified the way Mike modified the real airplane.

[@jaymagnum650]

Already been fantasized and tried by many but this ain't no sim, it requires heavy balls. I would not try it in real life:))))

[@mariokeiko6094]

Suggest: Strong Headwind is required here. For a Piper Cub, their stall speed is at 50 kph. Make sure headwind is faster than it. And make it balance with the plane throttle power.

[@Lochlann13]

STOL pilot's do 9 to 10 foot landings easy all the time. What makes this difficult is win at that height... although to be blown off would be easy, however blown off target with damage to the craft could be fatal.

[@teejay3250]

As soon as I was like "how the heck is he gonna get it off?" ... He dives like a boss lol

[@patheddles4004]

And he's doing that with a very tail-heavy aircraft - heavily modded to let him brake harder on the landing without flipping it. Skills.

[@hereitcomes3912]

​@@patheddles4004 probably bad for the diving, but than might be useful when tryin to turning up

[@patheddles4004]

@@hereitcomes3912 exactly. Taildragger plane, so under heavy braking it's trying to pivot the nose down and the tail up. Weight in the tail resists that, especially further back behind the main wheels (which are the pivot point). But that weight imbalance will tend to pitch the plane up, making it harder to dive.
