You trust that engine a little to much my friend!!!!!!!!!!! Sadly I lost some friends flying a trike , but not once was a problem with the trike. The problem was some cases , exactly what you do on this video !!!!
@@paulbritten9445 i’d say you’re just a great pilot lol. Bold pilots are dumb enough to attempt things that will more likely than not get them killed. Great pilots know theirs and the aircraft’s limits
I just watched this and was thinking the exact same thing. There is SO much wrong with what is going on here, I don't even know where to start. This looks cool - but is extremely stupid. An accident is a feet or two away..
This is an example of what not to do in a trike. I made some silly decisions when I started flying trikes and GA aircraft in 2000. 22yrs later I can say without a doubt, this is bad flying
Totalmente de acuerdo. Pero si no as pasado por una experiencia negativa y as terminado en el hospital por este tipo de comportamiento, nunca sabrás que esto no es un buen vuelo. La adrenalina esta muy cara.😂...cuidado... los cables...😱....🤣🤣🤣
I am an ultralight and trike pilot and i have had 18....18 in flight failures with low hour blue head 582 rotax engine just like this guys in the video....might as well play russian roulette when you land. its the most unreliable rotax ever made.
Well I have been flying for 30 odd years and in days of old a trike with a 447 2 stroke Rotax. Some 500 hours of flying I think it failed some 6 times; small end bearings peppering the pistons to points gap closing to ignition failure in the ON position and jammed full throttle etc. On one occasion flew a few hundred feet above a forest and she failed; sh#t !, Amazingly a postage stamp field appeared out of nowhere; winged it in skimming the last tree but landing at a rate of knots, through an arrester wire farmers fence like an aircraft carrier hook and she stopped with the wing relatively gently nosing over and bending the monopole. A few weeks later and we're good to go again; a lucky escape I think and one for the log book and memory bank. Not as exhilarating as this vid by far but hey I'm still here. If the engine fails in that video situation yousa fecked. Hmmm wonder if my saviour field still exists 🙏
I'm glad you decided to make that run, we fly through huge canyons with the slopes covered by Cactus all the time, you only live once and it would have haunted you forever. Good job !
This is some of the craziest flying I've seen! With a passenger no less! That's trust... trust in the pilot trust in the equipment because if anything happens when you're fully committed... it's gonna be ugly.
I'm 55, have secondary progressive multiple sclerosis and hope to buy one of these next year and learn to fly, can't walk because of MS, but screw it, I'll fly instead..❤❤✌
@@doncorleon9 No...if you are coming down through trees the tiny bit of glide the trike would give would be no better than a chopper. By the way...choppers can glide in their own way...its called autorotation.
There is a very thin line between being bold and being irresponsible. You are always responsible for your passenger and should do your best to minimize the risk, period. You have done exactly the opposite!
@@teogr23 The passenger probably had no idea how dangerous of a situation that stupid pilot was putting him in. That is the problem with these type of scenarios. All the poor passengers that have been killed by these stupid pilots, if you could bring them back, I guarantee you most, if not all, would say they had no idea what could really happen, they just thought it would be fun.
Wow, good skills... As a pilot, my opinion: amazing video, but I am glad, I was not on board. I would not encourage anyone to copy... 9/10 would not end well. I would give a thumb up, but I don't think that would be appropriate, as this was (f-word) too dangerous. We need good pilots (like you) to be alive and teach others to fly safely and responsibly. This was none of it.
Not sure what "skill” you're seeing. Just looks like high risk decision making to me. I wonder if the passenger understands the risk they're undertaking with the beginning and end of plan B being to crash into trees when the engine quits.
@@DwayneCrow No shit...that passenger has no idea how easily a rotax 582 can just quit running at any second. This is some of the most dangerous flying i have ever seen.
Personally, I don't take that much risk but I have been flying over forests and water so many times; not in search of a thrill, but because there was no practical alternative. In my logbook, there is around 15 engine-out's. I consider myself to be lucky. Edit: That being said, I don't mind that some people feed their need for thrills. I value freedom.
Me parece genial. ¡Enhorabuena, Paul! Los que no lo entiendan, que sigan trasladándose (volando) de un aeródromo a otro en vuelo recto y nivelado. Qué aburrido: así no evolucionarían ni las máquinas ni los pilotos. ¡Bravo, Paul!
It's one thing to take a risk on your own that's less of a problem for me, but your passenger has no idea of the risk your putting them in, great flying yes ! pour consideration for others.
@@mathewcourtney4565 Clearly you lack the benefits of conventional education then. You also clearly have no idea of the risk the stupid pilot was putting you in. One drop in power from that engine over the water and it would be going in and as you hit the nose would be pulled down and the wing would go in the water and be folded around you both, along with the tubes and cables and you would both drown in a sail cloth cocoon. There would be no getting out of that situation.
A good flight instructor or pilot is not the one who shows that he can fly well, but a good flight instructor is the one whose pilot student becomes a master. nice video hope you enjoy flying today,
It is not a snowmobile engine, the blue head 582 is a Rotax aviation engine. It is however, stupid, irresponsible and dangerous to trust it 100% by flying low in that terrain with no concern for his passenger's life.
Reminds me of Nam in a slick….wait, no not me! As long as he doesn’t meet his mate coming the other way ! 10:53 max alt 450ft AGL 11:30 definitely.. at some point straight ahead in 5 seconds!
Amazing flying ! - but damn have you ever thought of leaving yourself an out? lose your engine in the river area and you are screwed- not to mention a good trike wasted
This is totally irresponsible and stupid flying in so many ways with a complete disregard for the rules and the safety not only of the pilot, but of the passenger and people on the ground. The pilot clearly does not have the required mental capacity to hold a licence and should lose it if he has one. The rules that make flying so safe today are written in the blood of those that have gone before us. I've been a trike pilot for over 20 years and this type of flying is what gets the sport a bad name and even more regulation.
listen here stupid ,ive got over 30 years of experience in trikes,and it is on private property and all Legall, and as for the passenger who i explained the dangers too, refused to get out of my plane so he came for the run .so unless uv'e got something nice to say keep youre f_____ mouth shut
@@paulbritten9445Well I think your reply just completely sums up your attitude toward aviation and is borne out by other comments on here from proper and safe pilots. It's only matter of time until you come to grief and I hope you don't involve some other poor sod when it happens.
I fly a Powered Parachute and I have flown much lower than I should have, many times. Recently I have taken to flying higher altitudes when I have a passenger. The thrill is not worth the risk, in my opinion. I do take a few more risks when I am by myself. You can’t land on water and trying to get out of a four point harness after you have just smacked into it at 30 mile an hour or more is dubious. I think it is wise to fly at an altitude at which you can land safely should you have an engine out. Oh, that’s in the FARAIM also.
