0:46 D. B. Cooper simulator

[@vinceely2906]

Pretty sure they modified all regular 727’s after him. To stop anyone opening the back door and doing it again.

[@MrObeesho]

25 plus years of professional flying have never done a go around after the wheels have touched the ground. Probably should have committed to the landing instead of even contemplating flying again. Guaranteed it was that moment of transition from one mode to the other that the wing lifted.

So, if I hurt your feelings at some point, it was because you were blaming someone who was innocent.

At last! An accurate title! The pilot did indeed pull up "too hard" resulting in a tailstrike. Somehow I feel cheated out of a clickbaiting.

[@midcenturymoldy]

That skydiver should have done a go-around.

[@verifiedtoxicangel2411]

He wanted to crap urgently so he gave up on the go around.

[@grondhero]

He was hoping to get the video title: "Skydiver lands too low."

[@zabijca]

That first vid with BA tailstrike was the initial vid that started BIG JET TV's popularity (happened at the end of January 2022). After being featured on various British channels, it gained a significant number of subscribers and soon after that, storm Eunice arrived on the 17th of February. The rest is history...

1:09 that’s a hard landing. Also using a big jet for skydiving seems super expensive.

[@tin2001]

Probably works out OK if you're doing 20+ people. Also, some people are probably willing to pay a premium for the absurd idea of jumping straight out the back row of a jet like that.

[@Michelle_Schu-blacka]

World the compressor stall one be a 'mayday' or 'pan pan' situation or would it be like 'it's stopped so let's carry on'? Is it one of those things that just happen or is it a serious fault where they'd have to turn back?

[@Jessman5]

Did the A380 drop a bit of height during the last wave?

[@Shrike200]

It turned out that he had not, in fact, 'got it'.

[@harvey364]

For the BA tail strike, I can't believe the loud-mouthed BigJet TV guy was silent on that!

[@jasonwinkowski6310]

How much does it roughly cost to repair a tail strike like that?

[@EleanorPeterson]

Hard to say. Hundreds of thousands? The damage to the tailstrike skid itself is probably quite minor (scuffs and scrapes; replacing the various paint layers; the actual severity is recorded on the plane's data recorder), but if it was a heavy enough hit then there's a major pressure bulkhead back there that would have to be checked for distortion. You need full access for a visual inspection, maybe also X-rays, ultrasound scans - if the instruments say it was a very severe impact, it gets expensive, and that could cost millions to put right. Possibly. Even if there's absolutely no damage - planes are built very tough these days - the real cost comes in having the jet sitting on the ground, in the workshop, being inspected. Every minute that it's not in the air and actually carrying passengers is costing the airline a small fortune.

[@philiphumphrey1548]

​@@EleanorPetersonI've often wondered why they don't fit a tail wheel with suspension that could absorb the shock of most tail strikes. I expect the calculation is that the cost of constantly flying the extra weight is more than repairing the odd bent plane due to tail strike.

[@EdOeuna]

A lot of aircraft have a tail skid, so that absorbs the impact and not any part of the pressure hull. More orders aircraft with FBW should have algorithms within their FBW programming that prevent over pitching and a tail strike. I guess they’re not infallible.

[@justing42]
