      I could be wrong but it seems that if the main gear had been conventional instead of trailing link gear, the outcome could have been very different. I'm amazed that the nose gear stayed on, considering the size and weight of the aircraft. Great job Cessna!

    I think the right propeller contacted the runway with the second bounce, the one on the nose wheel. One can hear a « trrr » right at this moment. Possibly why they shut down number 2 engine after turning, not knowing the nose wheel steering was broken. Might have been a tailwind component looking at the wing sock, which might explain why he came in so fast.

      If you look at the wingtip vortices (super cool visual in this video btw!) after the second bounce, the "smoke" is a different color and much thicker on the right side. That may be dust from the prop hitting the runway. I hope we're wrong and that there was not a prop strike because the aircraft departed YZL on the same day.

    High descent rate, no roundout/flare - I'm honestly shocked the main gear didn't give out, especially with the porpoising right after. You can see the nosewheel shimmy... likely some serious damage. Generally you would go around if you started porpoising as the oscillations would get worse. Luckily they had killed enough energy to recover. Pilot has some serious questions to answer.

      Not only did they turn around and leave the "scene of the crime", they also jacked it up to FL170 and flew with IAS of 230kts. A subtle ferry flight at FL090 (whatever is needed to safley overfly this area) with a low speed maybe would have been a little bit more appropriate, given the structural stress the aircraft has been through.

    It's safe to say that was more of a crash landing! OMG!! The nose landing gear vibrations during braking were definitely not a good sign. It's alarming to think that there might be some serious damage to the aircraft's structure. The struggle to exit the runway, with the pilot resorting to applying power, reverse thrust, and even going through engine restarts, is truly nerve-wracking. Given the circumstances, a thorough inspection is absolutely necessary to assess any potential structural issues. Let's hope this won't be the end for the magnificent Cessna 441 Conquest II! Safety should always be our top priority, and it's crucial to ensure that the aircraft is in perfect condition before it takes flight again. Thanks for sharing the video, Jesse.

    I have a couple/few hundred hours PIC (mostly single-pilot) in the CE-441 Conquest II (i.e., w/the Garrett TPE engines, same as this one) along with many dozens of landings and takeoffs, going in and out of various fairly short, unpaved or paved runways in Alaska with full payloads the summer of 2015 during a part-time charter gig between an air-ambulance job and my current B737 freighter job. The 441 is a very powerful, fast and capable airplane, particularly in single-engine operations, normally providing jet-like SE climb performance making it a relatively easy, relatively simple twin-engine airplane to manage, thanks to its high power-to-weight ratio. I’d much rather have an engine failure at maximum gross weight on a hot day in the 441 than an engine failure in a Piper Navajo Chieftain (PA-31-350) with half-full tanks and no payload, any day or night. While the 441 is one of the all-out fastest cabin-class twin-turboprops around, it does slow-flight exceedingly well; it is highly capable with short field operations, for both landing and takeoff, thanks to all that power and a capable airfoil design. Legend has it that Cessna discontinued production so as not to compete with its then new, more pricy, slightly faster (in cruise) Citation jet more than 40 years ago.
    This landing incident is due purely to pilot incompetence. I see an occupant in the right (“copilot”) seat; I must assume this is a passenger and not a qualified pilot. There was no excuse for the continuation of this unstabilized approach, resulting in the hard landing. That stated, upon examination of the slow-motion version of the video multiple times, the truly painful part of this viewing experience follows the initial touchdown (or, slam-down). Initially, the sturdy trailing-link main gear absorbs the energy well, with the fairly delicate nose wheel assembly taking a directly vertical hit in a near-flat attitude. This is harsh, but nowhere nearly abusive as what follows.
    PIO: Pilot Induced Oscillation. This would be expected of a student pilot learning how to land. Following the excessive sink rate and excessively steep descent angle, the pilot fails to flare soon enough, is surprised by the impact and pulls back to “arrest”, but it’s simply too late; impact has already occurred. The wings still have flying speed because the approach was flown too fast, indicating a lack of slow-flight skill in this airplane (likely fear of flying it too slow, i.e., ignorance of flight characteristics), in addition to lack of planning and overall management for this apparently short runway with a tailwind (note the foreground windsock at the start). The unfortunate airplane recommences flight (because that’s what airplanes do when there’s too much airpspeed for landing), the pilot reacts by pushing the nose down… and this time the nosegear upper-section is HAMMERED down upon the fork and wheel assembly, abusing and potentially breaking the downlock brace; pilot is surprised again, pulls back and rebounds, pushes forward again and BAM goes the nose-gear, again stressing the downlock brace, then a third time where the audio seems to pick up the bang of the nose-gear assembly’s oleo-strut (shock-absorber) slamming home; for a total of seven lessening impacts, finally neutralizing with deceleration. Had the nose gear downlock brace collapsed, I roughly estimate a USD $1,000,000 repair bill for engines and propellers, etc. That’s likely an underestimate.
    Note the coincidence of nose-wheel shimmy with entry into reverse thrust (the propeller blades are angled back, pushing air forward). Deceleration in general, and reverse thrust in particular, intensify the load upon the nosewheel. Note the elevator’s (horizontal tail-plane control surface) mostly downward deflection, indicating little or no nose-up input from the pilot indicating little-to-no appreciation for alleviating load upon the nosewheel assembly during deceleration (the control yoke is more-or-less forward). This shows me that the pilot lacks general airmanship skill or awareness. Overall grade: A ...for Atrocious/Appalling/Abusive.

    • @DeanCully
      @DeanCully Рік тому

      I forgot to mention that this is a classic example of an "unstabilized approach" and how it manifests. A pilot with commensurate experience and competence for such an airplane would have recognized this state well before short-final, gone around and set up for a proper, stabilized approach. When in doubt, when it's not right, GO AROUND-do it again, correctly. If it's broken, don't try to fix it. Go around until you have it right, or go somewhere else with a big runway and no mountains nearby. ADM: aeronautical decision making; good to look at, lotsa UA-cam videos on the subject.

      No, it was clearly, unmistakably gross incompetence by the pilot. Even if there were windshear involved, the resulting PIO (pilot induced oscillation, 6 of them) is a result that should only be seen from a pre-solo flight student undergoing primary training, and not allowed by their flight instructor to progress past the first bounce.

    Having flown into Nelson, I can tell the pilot likely f-ed up the approach early on. It probably started on the downwind leg. Nelson airport is in a narrow valley, and you need to extend the downwind leg up the lake (on a dogleg turning away from the airport) in order to have enough room to descend on the base - final leg. Instead they likely flew a standard circuit pattern, turned in tight on the base leg, came in very high and fast, and then was probably afraid to float down the (short) runway too far to bleed off the airspeed so they smashed it down instead. Didn't work out too well. Classic continuation bias.

    • @DeanCully
      @DeanCully Рік тому +1

      In other words, the pilot didn't go-around upon turning final (or even at roundoff/flare) and seeing that the approach was grossly unstabilized, trying it again at the correct airspeed and configuration, beginning no later than the downwind leg instead of tossing judgment to the wind while hoping for a special dispensation from the law of physics.

      @@TheHDAviation say WHAAAT!? they flew it out like THAT!? 😳😳😵‍💫😵‍💫
      that banged up nose gear alone would’ve scared me out of the cockpit… 😵‍💫😵‍💫 geeez… they either must have a really compelling reason to fly it out like that, or some other reason I cannot even fathom… 🫣🫣
      how they managed to put that nose gear back together enough to be at least good for another landing is scary 😳😳

    Stalled it in. You can see the full-up elevator and when he shuts down that he touched the number 2 prop.

    That is the same thing that happened to me when I was coming back on my first XC solo. It has to be the most terrifying experience that I have ever experienced. I am surprised that I walked away injury-free and the plane was alright. Future flight students, make sure you all memorize the go-around procedures because it will save your life.

    I think he was approaching way too slow. If you watch carefully you can see him pull full up elevator trying to flare but the plane did not pitch up at all. Maybe a forward CG coupled with too slow of an approach speed. Also that second bounce looked like the right propeller touched the ground. Crazy stuff going on out there.

    I can't believe what I just watched. The lack of airmanship and decision making all around. He smashes it on to the ground, including a prop strike, and then takes off less than 3 hours later! WTF?

      This landing was pretty shocking to see, never witnessed anything like it before. And maybe even more shocking was the fact they took off and performed a 45 minute flight over the mountains a few hours later. It looks like it hasn't flown again since the day I filmed this.

    DAMN, Im amazed that nose gear didn't snap!!!!
    Agreed, Im 64 and have NEVER seen a landing that hard, EXCEPT on a carrier arrest!!!
    Had to be damage to prevent the next takeoff before repairs, no doubt!
    Great catch, Bro!

    He also had a prop strike on the right hand engine. When he shut it down you can see a damaged prop. 😵‍💫🥴
