Ultralight crash in engine during flight

Ultralight crash in engine during flight over the southern coast of Brazil, and subsequent approach and landing beach paradise.

[@Kneedragon1962]

That was a 'crash' in the engine? I think it was a switch in the cockpit. How lucky that there was a cameraman on the beach to film your unplanned and unexpected emergency.

[@mike_oe]

Exactly what I thought. Just a normal, planned power off landing

[@stereopolice]

I hope the tide washes that f'ing thing away, because of the title of this video alone. I was ripped-off, want my money back. And the music was inappropriate too. Cheerio, warmest regards, Brian.

[@TiffMcGiff]

Proper Internet Etiquette. LOVE IT

[@gone4winter]

I thought this was gonna happen

[@haroldhumerickhouse7904]

Stupid video. Stupid.

[@vermin1970]

And the beach just happened to be empty, except for one person with a camera who just happened to be there. I cry BS, this was a dead stick landing practice, no engine failure and definitely no crash. Thumbs down for a completely misleading title.

[@truthseekers666]

Engine STOPPED, not crashed. Crashing is what you dio when you hit the ground badly and break the aircraft or bend it. This is known as a simple engine failure. Nice landing on the beach tho.

[@Amram81]

***** Crashed is not a synonym(just another term) for failed, stopped, or cease to respond. Lets start with your example of the stock market, they aren't referring to the stock market stopping, because it doesn't stop. They aren't referring to its failure, because the market doesn't fail in the way that context implies(though the traders certainly can fail to perform adequately). The market can fail to meet expectations, but then fail has a different meaning from stop. They also aren't referring to it being unresponsive, because the market is responding to pressures, thats why its crashing. In a market crash it plummets, falls, and does so suddenly with great effect, that is a crash in that context. A heart doesn't crash, but a heart rate can. This is why it is called Cardiac Arrest, or it is said that their heart has stopped or failed. Not that their heart has crashed. A student cannot crash their test, but they can fail it. They fail to perform adequately. A bridge doesn't crash, yet its debris can come crashing down. The bridge will fail, buckle, or collapse. An unconcious person may be unresponsive, but they aren't said to have crashed. A car with a dead battery may be unresponsive, but it can't be said to have crashed without a collision having occurred. A car can crash which implies a collision, or it can fail which implies that it has ceased to function correctly. They are not equal. You can crash with no damage, and so your car will not fail, and you can break down without a crash occurring. You can suffer a power outage or power failure, but have you ever heard of a power crash during thunderstorms? You will never find crash as a synonym for those terms, because it isn't. If it were, each of these examples would work with crash in their place, because in crash would have similar meaning. They don't work because it doesn't. Stop jumping, cease jumping, they mean the same thing. Stop jumping, crash jumping.....what? Crash into, stop into....what? Context is everything, and 'engine crashed' is entirely incorrect given the context.

[@BrunoLRck]

***** Crash is colliding with the ground or other obstacle

[@JuanDelgado-vk4sq]

Amram81 I’m to lazy to read

[@jreed1701d]

Was it really an emergency? Somebody was video taping it on the ground...

[@saildapper2001]

Apparently there was loud music playing, instead of the beautiful sounds of soaring.

[@Akaflieger]

Sorry, I don't get it. Maybe you used the wrong word, 'cause in aviation "crash" is used for something totally different. It looks like a simulated engine failure. Is it legal in Brazil to land on a beach, or do you need a special clearance for that?

[@ICEGTN]

From the title I was expecting an ultralight to hit an engine mid-air

[@rodneyredhill1500]

Completely Agree. I have a PPL and have had on countless times done simulated engine failures for renewal tests. Fortunately, I have had air-force instructors.( My airport is military/civilian and the civil flight schools use airforce instructors). My first simulated failure, I went through the drills. -Change fuel tanks, try a re start, make a simulated mayday etc. The instructor almost whacked me on the head. He said.- "Fly the Plane. Look for a place to land. Don't waste time on frivolity".

[@spanky44mag]

who was filming on the ground?

[@mylexg693]

worst case scenario if my engine failed i would totally die to this song.

[@Larry7652]

How did you get the footage from the beach?

[@zadeh79]

His conspirer.

[@DrumCoversbyBill]

Beautiful "forced" landing :) I have a friend who lives in Puerto Rico that practices landings like that all the time on empty beaches. Its a beautiful thing :) That looked like a CTLS, that would make it a Light Sport Aircraft (LSA), NOT an ultralight

[@Awavy1]

so there was a crashing sound in the motor, and then you had to land in paradise. I got it. Your just missing periods in the title and description. Beautiful flight

[@christianyong1934]

The pilot got it. Didn't crash.

[@Zypherx1]

The way he handles it looks like he's saying to himself "Aww crap, not again!"

[@JimForeman]

That's exactly why I won't fly anything with a two-stroke engine.

[@MisterItchy]

More like "Intentional Power Off Landing On A Beach Then Subsequent Posting On KZbin With The Word Crash In The Title To Get More Hits" Definitely good to practice those things.

[@nevillejollands7181]

This is not a crash landing, nor an engine failure. What it is, is a very skilled use of "Energy Management" to "Dead stick" land an aircraft precisely on a predetermined length of beach, at just the right tide conditions. I would hope I could do half as well if I had to do an engine out landing. nevjoll (downunder)

[@tazztt1]

In other news... A plane was found floating near the shores of Tripoli today which had been brought in by the tide. The origin is yet unknown.

[@therealeben]

A flair is a controlled stall. A landing is not a crash any more than pulling into your driveway to park is a crash.

[@falecomogustavo]

Que praia é esta? E quem estava filmando o pouso? Obrigado

[@lvbearboy]

This is not an Ultralight, it's an LSA (Light Sport Aircraft). Cessna does make one, the Sky Catcher. No other Cessna is considered an LSA or Ultralight.

[@lusjokastro]

If all crashes were like that, life would be a paradise. LOL

[@learflyer2]

that was not a crash , that was an engine out procedure done deliberately by shutting the engine down and gliding in to a beach landing .

[@garthrichert5256]

Very good glide control and landing. Was it a Rotax ?

[@youngypaul]

you were lucky a person was at the exact place on the deserted beach to film your "engine crash"

[@Liam-eg6gq]

Can I just say, that is not a F***ing ultralight!!! Clickbait video never watching again!😂jk

[@TXLorenzo]

How convenient that there was a nice straight beach and someone on the ground to record your "emergency".

[@muc21]

By American definiton it's an LSA. In most European countries it's an Ultralight or Microlight. There is no international standard for defining Ultralights so the meaning can change a lot from country to country. An by the way, it's a Comco Ikarus C42.

[@billyy727]

The video creator's brain crashed, and he put this song in it.

[@MARK1234888]

What number is it ?

[@MrCWH5]

Im going to thumbs up this vid even though the title is a bit deceptive I still liked watching it. Never hurts to practice a dead stick landing, still could have gone very badly on final aproach and touch down.

[@yogieaw21]

He referred crash to computer which means "an event that causes a computer system to become inoperative". By the way, he stated that "Ultralight crash in engine" so that means its an engine failure. Come on peeps, as daxdadog said, "the notes written by someone to whom English is a second language." Just enjoy it.. Anyway, nice landing,.

[@SoloPilot6]

Oh, yeah, ALL "engine crashes" take place in front of a buddy shooting video, after flying miles to get there without once trying for a restart.

[@SKYFLYBRI]

A very good video of a PFL with a stupid title, its a C42 microlight/Ultralight, the pilot has turned off the engine and glided down to do a super landing, with camera crew at the landing point. what can you learn from this video, if the engine should stop look at all the time you have to plan a landing. the great thing about this video, its shows when the engine is not working, Microlights don’t just fall out the sky.

[@the1realanalogman]

As many have pointed out: not an ultralight and not a crash. Tacky way to get views.

[@shakenama]

Great landing! I wouldnt call that a crash. Here in the US that type plane would be called a Light Sport Aircraft not an ultralight.

[@montiraruba2831]

How would you crash in engine? You crashed inside an engine? You crashed in an engine? huh?!!!

[@BrunoLRck]

engrish

[@phantom0482]

actually the easiest way I remember the procedures is how my instructor showed me on the c172, he called them the ABCDE A:airspeed 65 knots(cessna) B: best Field for landing C: checklist(engine out during flight, which includes engine restart if possible) and if that fails D: declare emergency E: execute landing

[@Jackle61]

Lighten up Francis. The person is from Brazil, so did you ever think maybe the translation software did a poor job of translating? It does say "crash in engine" so I would assume that meant the engine died. Nothing to get all testy about.

[@flyboy3633]

Emergency landing ? With someone that just happened to be on the ground filming in what seemed to be a remote area ? Sounds fishy to me. Plus, it's not an ultralight. It's an LSA.

[@pedrolg]

Yeah, your engine failed just in time so you could land close to the one who could film your approach, jeje. Thanks for the vid, it's nice.

[@daxdadog]

I'm guessing this was titled, and the notes written by someone to whom English is a second language. I enjoyed it none the less.

[@mectechman1]

Lucky there was a somebody filming this when he approached for landing on an otherwise desolate beach...good work though!

[@chanctonbury63]

Now for a 150 mile walk back to the nearest roadhead!

[@ThePilot314]

You are right! 3:40 shows that this is a fake i.e. a very normal landing for security training. We call it in Germany PUNKT-LANDUNG / point landing without engine/power like a glider. A very good training for a - probably - real emergency-situation! All the best Jo

[@Nyz1ro]

J A. ; a crashlanding does not mean it breaks apart, its just a type of landing. If you were a pilot, you would understand.

[@onzoom8538]

What is the name of this plane?

[@MaksimSF]

My post was a sarcasm, but c'mon ultralights are gliders with prop....

[@ikono2]

This is C42 of Comco Ikarus, I fly also such a plane! And it is a german Ultralight (MTOW 472,5 kg)

[@vincent7520]

Not a crash in just an ultralight engine stall. I thought an ultralight crashed in mid flight onto an other plane … Not a bad place to land either. Gond audio.

[@andrewmarks2267]

Some people do talk a load of rubbish... You can turn a 912 over easily by hand, in fact part of the start procedure is to "gurgle" the engine first start of the day. (Turn over by hand until a gurgling eminates from the dry sump oil tank)

[@jedslather]

Why the dislike, great video, thanks!

[@vivaloriflamme]

Wow-- the prop is spinning so fast it looks like it isn't moving. : ) Beautiful beach and good song.

[@DavidSmith-mk7qo]

I would say your instructor is correct. But everyone teaches it different. I noticed you said 65KIAS EGS. I was taught 55. Of course I would do what the manual says for that aircraft. But I will always remember my first instructor who said you only got 1 engine anyway why not try and restart it if you have plenty of altitude at the time. Airspeed is money in the bank and altitude is interest. I was also taught to get airspeed as low as possible just before touchdown to increase survivability.

[@yamahabradley]

It's just another seized Rotax engine. Talk to anyone that has used a Rotax powered ultrlight, snowmobile, watercraft or whatever. Rotax middle name is seize.

[@spindlerkart]

sul ? rs ? sc ?

[@cloggedpitot1]

The most excited I ever got flying was during deadstick landings

[@MrFernandes2010]

Parabéns por toda a filmagem e pela trilha sonora. Gostei muito de tudo, e espero que esteja blindado de segurança para outras filmagens do tipo. Boa sorte.

[@michaelrmonk]

If that's a "crash" I want one! Beautiful... beautiful Brazil!!

[@christianyong1934]

Plane never crashed. The pilot got landing it without engine power.

[@halnwheels]

Mellow. Very nice vid and music.

[@user-rp2rt6pq6f]

i love this video when ever I miss flying I watch it

[@XamTakorian]

Not really a "crash" but still a cool video man.

[@brittany16950]

So… nobody is worried about the IFR conditions over at 2 o’clock?

[@xXTerraTenienteXx]

nice, fucking negative people in comments, nice music. saludos desde os desertos do norte do México. América Latina presente

[@TerryGrancho]

Where'd you think they are at, in the moon? there are people with cellphones everywhere.. if they needed a good argument, of course! XD

[@ThePirocadoida]

I stayed until the end just because the music is good!

[@flyeurodiesel]

A nice sea breeze front, he could have soared home. Tough luck mate.

[@dittos17]

damn I'm glad you cleared that up..

[@OzcarMike641]

Oh my god that was so tragic. I hope everyone was OK.

[@TAQUEROCHIDO1966]

THANKS TEACHER!!!

[@Cnupoc]

give that pilot a keg of beer !

[@ritualghost]

Thats completely wrong. The first thing you do is establish best glide and look for a place to land. Once your approach is established, THEN you can try to restart the engine and call a mayday. Thats always first priority. You're obviously one of those flight sim heros.

[@EvanM2007]

I think what the person meant to say was engine "failure" but was thinking crash like a "computer crash". Same train of thought and principle just improper wording for English. Obviously the person is from Brazil so English would not be their first language.

[@tcorourke2007]

Not an Ultralight, not a crash.

[@liney118]

Ultralight crash in engine, That makes no sense what so ever.

[@iamcleaver6854]

+liney118 I think it is supposed to mean that the engine broke.

[@liney118]

Iam Cleaver Oh, :)

Sem dúvida o corte do motor foi proposital, caso contrário, o piloto teria tentado acioná-lo novamente ainda em voo. Mesmo assim, um excelente vídeo demonstrando a qualidade da aeronave e perícia do piloto. Parabéns!

[@MrJohndl]

Cutting the engine is very dangerous. Not necessary either. Just pull the throttle to idle and glide all the way in.

[@millimetreperfect]

So no crash - a forced landing, looked like a long walk for fuel.

[@TheKahunas2722000]

And to add ...This looks like a cessna not a ultralight

[@leeleleaux1801]

I purchased a Cessna c 150 and filled it with fuel (4 hours) and it developed a fuel leak and was forced to make an emergency landing in a corn field. almost made a great landing till I hit a mud hole and the plane flipped over, not a scratch on me. owned the plane for 1 hour and 10 min.

[@leeleleaux1801]

now have a piper cherokee, 140 with a 160 hp upgrade

[@craigsmith4242]

It takes 1hr & 10 minutes for a 150c to fly across town. You bought the wrong plane!

[@MrCommonlane]

Also the quality is exactly the same and he has time to move the camera around in flight. i know a few people who have had engine faliures and going by what they say you don't have time to think about any thing else just landing the plane.

[@mr1rapid]

Great video, Nice flight with or without the engine.

[@JW-pz9xp]

Thought they would turn the radio off when they did a planned engine out landing.

[@DavidSmith-mk7qo]

No you missed my point. In any engine out emergency the first thing you do is try to get the engine running again. If this fails you establish emergency glide speed and look for a place to put it down. But as another viewer said it is obvious this is a fake video.

[@gustavopadovezi]

Lindo vídeo, que bom que tinha alguém em solo para filmar seu pouso!!! coincidência.. rsrs!! Abraços.

[@ldipenti]

Great landing strip with a gorgeous view :)

[@PocketsRides]

if this was a real crash how did u get the footage from the ground

[@alexwolf5315]

How is the crash brutal?

[@carstensommer3231]

Just a practice landing with no motor running and a buddy on beach waiting ...LOL

[@EspritDeBottineQc]

How can you crash a plane in your engine ?

[@kasperrghat4318]

And still - someone spent all their life making music, working with an expression, and to you it is only... something. Could´nt you make it a habbit to mention the people that you steal from, and respect their work.

[@oceanwong4906]

Well, this is an ultralight.

[@jmsancho]

This looks very nice, although it's a staged. Altitude is security, but the situation would be illegal in Spain, we can not fly above 1,000 fts with this kind of aircraft-... moreover to found in Spain a beach with no tourists, it's really difficult!,.. and you don't make noise with a idle engine (nobody is seeing you). My last comment: It's looks like a "3-points" landing (the 3 wheels touch the ground at the same time). In soft sand areas like a beach, never do that. The song like.

[@marcfeyzeau]

That's an easy one with a very small challenge considering the size of the beach !

[@FlowSense544]

the motor stopped, i guess that's what he ment by "crash"

[@KingsleyBrown79]

It's called a 'dead stick' you have very limited choices to make for landing. no power means no going around or trying again

[@ninoandsem]

How can you call this a crash?
