    Agree. Goulian has an aggressive style of flying, but at the same time he's one of the world's most skilled pilots.

    Pylon grabs wing, extra drag tilts it towards the earth. Must have an amazing reaction time to get a feel for the new net drag and compensate

      @@NoelKerns It is most likely reacting based on feel, like what they say about driving a formula 1 car, by the time you know it's spinning it's too far gone to correct, you have to be able to feel exactly what is happening so your body just corrects before you even realize

    • @NoelKerns
      @NoelKerns 4 роки тому +1

      @@Jaymes27 - Well, I can tell you as a pilot myself, it's ultimately probably some of both, but likely more visual than feel. I say this because I know that what I see with my eyes is processed and can convert to a reaction in milliseconds. But for comparison, let's imagine for a moment that this pilot had his eyes closed through the whole incident - basically, reacting by 'fee'l rather than by positive visual confirmation. I find it highly, highly unlikely that that saving roll would have occurred as quickly as it did.
      Why? Well, a good example of the criticality of visual information versus feel can be found in al the stories of inexperienced pilots flying into IFR conditions and getting completely disoriented WITHOUT the visual input they're used to. This points to how subtle - and sometimes even confusing - the feedback we get from 'feel' is, as opposed to the immediate, direct confirmation we get when we can SEE what's actually happening.

    I flew with Michael in Multicolor Extra 300 (two seats)when I was younger, It was amazing. I live in Mass, and he lives a few towns away from where I live. This was back when my town hosted airshows. He used to put on an amazing show too!

  • @MGB1977Red

    The spikes on the wing are actually aileron spades. They provide a power assist to the ailerons, reducing stick pressure. The elevator and rudder have extensions past the pivot point which have the same effect of powering the control surfaces. Some of the old WW2 aircraft felt like the stick was frozen solid at high speeds.

  • @clist9406
    @clist9406 4 роки тому +2

  • @albedoshader
    @albedoshader 15 років тому +16

    You can with the appropriate knowledge of aerodynamic engineering :)
    The sudden loss of lift on one wing is like an unwanted wing slip maneuver, pretty dangerous at that height. But pilots like Goulian know their planes like their own body and do the right correction maneuvers automatically. Great video.

  • @jjs4you2

    He could of over reacted to that situation and ended up in really bad shape, but he kept his cool and kept his inputs on the stick as lite as needed to get him out of that situation.
    I don't know if thats big balls but rather a cool head and excellent flying instincts!

    the pilons are made of spinnaker rip-stop nylon, a very lightweight and flexible material used for making sails for boats. They are strapped to the ground and filled with regular air, pumped in by a gas powered blower, the same way the inflatable kids bouncy rooms at carnivals are filled.

    Helium is the ONLY gas used in blimps. You can refer to the Goodyear Blimp's FAQ page. And these pylons are actually made of rip-stop Nylon, the same very light material that hot air balloons are.

  • @MGB1977Red
    @MGB1977Red 15 років тому

    At 1:14 the aircraft has stopped flying and is starting to snap right to inverted and into the drink. A little opposite aileron and easing up a tad on the elevator saves the day with a couple inches to spare. He's still pulling the turn to get back on course which takes some moxie. A fat wing and a lot of power makes these hits survivable.

    Hmm...would it be possible to suspend the pylons in the air to avoid near-crashes like this?
    Maybe the pylon would be attached to a rope 30 or so feet in the air. The pylon could be filled with helium or something to keep it aloft. I don't know how to deal with the pylon drifting around tho.
