Great job in helping out. He was lucky you were there to assist, leaking gas and running motor with trapped pilot could have had a far worse ending. Definitely some respect for the conditions needed before flying 🪂🪂

Looks like he had a frontal collapse from not applying enough break! and wing over shot him.This is what lead to his glider going left and him rolling. Practice kiting kiting kiting is a must! to becoming a great pilot! I’m a firm believer in that! You learn to feel when glider is gonna overshoot you. and you get on the break so it doesn’t you learn to control. Thanks for sharing fly safe!
@michaeldose20412 жыл бұрын
He did get a break, he got a broken arm, because he didn't apply his brakes properly. Now he is painfully aware of the difference between a break and a brake.

Man, glad he is OK! Looks like there were lots of opportunities to reconsoder this flight before wheels up, but I get it, we all love to fly and want to get in the air. Not saying this was avoidable, I wasn't there.. But maybe some lessons can be learned from this event that will keep us all safer in the future. I hope you share those lessons in the future. Great job getting to him quickly and getting him the help he needed. In this hobby, we are all mechanics and first responders! lol. Be safe!

So I'm a foot launch guy all the way, but I trike in cold weather, XC, and tandem. His fundamentals need work. My trike taxi's are typically shorter than my foot launch. I also kill my wing asap after landings he got back on it after landing.
@SirDrifto2 жыл бұрын
Yeah I always had a bad tendency to let the wing overshoot on a trike in the early years. Trikes are great on those no wind landings type days though 👍😉

Thats a clean little camper! Looks like someone put a lot of work into it. Tikes seem so sketchy. At least on your feet you can move sideways to keep under the wing.

Sorry about the roll over,Im a trike pilot and have had 3 over the years.I fly a Charger and have launched out of some short spots.Im a little confused why it was taking so long to get airborne,as Im up in 60 feet usually.Was the engine making full trust?Seemed like there was plenty of room just took a long time to get off the ground.

I am confused, was he trying to do a touch and go? Didn't look like it. Look like he was coming in to land, which then begs the question, why didn't he kill the motor right before touching down? They said he couldn't kill the motor after the crash because the line was cut. However if he would have killed it before landing, none of this would have happened. Even the description says landing didn't go as planned. Specially with trikes you need to kill your motor when you are committed to land for so many reasons.

My last time up in my PPC, I had a harder then expected landing, which blew out my front tire, which locked up, buckling my front forks, resulting in a sudden stop, & forward somersault as the wing went over, ending in me hanging upside down in my harness. No injuries for me other than minor bruising, having had more violent impacts on a peddle bike! Repairs in process. Lost the front forks & three blade prop $,$$$. 😖 The unfortunate & common side of what we do. Thankfully he had help, as did I!! Freaked the poor guys out, when My machine dug in & rolled upside down.

@@SirDrifto Barely, just contusions from the violent & sudden stop from the seatbelt & my shin hit something as I was flipped upside down upon impact. I was trained to tuck everything up & in, letting the role cage do its job. So I basically walked away like no big deal. Took a bit for my mind to wrap around the fact that I was suddenly upside down, but once reorientated, I put my feet towards the ground, & dropped out of my harness, after turning everything off. 🤷♂️

@@SirDrifto There are 2 windsocks showing nil wind. If he is a good pilot why was his motor running? Why did he not flare and or stall the wing? This is odd behavior I would like to know what he was thinking because it looks like he just blacked out and caused the crash. Even after the crash was inevitable all he had to do was hug his arms around himself and he would have been fine, seems like he did everything wrong that he could once he touched down. Why?
@mikes62166 ай бұрын
Watched it again, and after he landed the wing started to stall and the front wheel lifted, then he hit the throttle and caused a frontal. Maybe he was trying to do a very poor touch and go to show off, as you 2 got into the air.
