Haha I just saw this on 3 Minutes of Avaition. Absolutely amazing. That is a very skilled pilot right there.

Those boring straight runways aren't enough of a challenge, I guess.

That touchdown while turning was impressive.

fun fact

definition of a good landing - one you walk away from.

For people who don't know even when your engine is out you can steer the plane with your rudder and once your wheels touch the ground you actually have differential breaking meaning the brakes for your right foot and your left foot control the right foot brake and the left wheel break respectively so you can actually just hit the right foot brake and the right wheel will lock up which will definitely turn that plain hard to the right on the ground. I imagine that's what he did when his right will first touchdown and that's why he was able to negotiate that curve. Not to mention he's still flying until all wheels are on the ground. And even when all wheels are on the ground when you've got any Ford speed your rudder will still turn that nose left and right. Furthermore when you're gliding down you can control the spot where you're going to touch down a lot by deciding to land faster or slower and keeping the nose up until you run out of speed. Additionally you can raise and lower flaps to make yourself land near or further down the runway or in this case the street. So you actually have a ton of control in all directions until you completely run out of AirSpeed or until you're actually on the ground and no longer moving.

You couldn't pull that off on a spinning ball.

Handled that curve like a champ!

Now do LA in rush hour traffic!

Remember although this video started when he was fairly down low he actually was up higher and could have seen the long stretch of the road for the next 2 miles and seen that not many cars were on it and it was very wide.

I'm actually more impressed that he missed those cars then that he could land it on the turn of the road. You can actually maneuver light plains very easily on the ground even at speed. The strange thing about this is he had enough power in the engine to rev it to move it the last little bit after he had already stopped near the side of the road. So I'm not really sure what the issue was to cause the plane to need to land unless he was having a health problem like a heart attack pain or something.

Imagine a nigress trying to do this

Engine was still running, any story on why he decided to put it down there?

Faggot should have killed himself instead of risking other's lives.

Sure a good place to land for him but.He could have killed lots of people on the road. This asshole decided his life and plane were worth more than anyone on that road.
