Definitely agree! The pilot was Tim Stadler, a professional pilot flying for Red Bull. And the flight was even more impressive than the cutting in this particular video lets on. He took off (losing the tire), flew a slow lap inspecting the damage, retracted, flew a full flight, then did a normal landing prep and landed calmly :D Pretty darn cool-headed imo
Looked like a flame out of the the engine, in combination with being mid-4 point roll and at medium speed/low altitude at that exact moment. Just not enough time to get it right side up again...
supramaniac502, The official story is that the gas turbine disintegrated (unknown why) and cut power to the main (redundant) electronics system causing a totall loss of control.
@@RCTommy I can see that. I'm a 100% electric pilot, but I have been around turbines for a while... Just saying what I saw, not being there in person. Thanks for the correction...
dmitry: I think it's called a "flame-out". In the slow-motion version, you can see the engine fire go out and then the jet goes into a dive and crashes.
I have been ill for a few weeks (since before the Christmas holidays), add that to a lot of extra work at my day job... That being said, I will continue to make videos in the future, so stay tuned. Cheers😊👍
RC Tommy. I can imagine that must be quite cold that nordhish :-). Here in Switzerland we’re having a mild winter so more time to fly than expected. And of course will stay tuned :-)
Personally, I think the F 104 is one of the most beautiful aircraft ever built. Just sitting on the tarmac in polished aluminum it looks like a rocket ship that could take you right to the moon, if you'd let it!
Ferocious Frankie with some very docile landings. Buttery smooth. And sincere condolences to the L-39 owner. Spectacular and unexpected. Btw, which plane(s) do you fly?
Yeah, silky smooth flying by Mr. Jan Berg. I fly a lot of different planes, including a Savex L-39 with a JetCat P-60SE (which is far too heavy for that airframe tbh), a VQ Twin Otter, the Freewing F-104 (90mm) Starfighter, a few different warbirds and of course my true and trusted EFlite Maule (a superb bush plane). The only reason why you don’t see me flying too often on this channel is simply due to a lack of a decent camera man (since that is my role for the most part). Cheers! Next season I’ll hopefully get my 2m Tony Nijhuis Vampire flying. Just ned a few hundred more hours of building first. 😊
The 262 looks like it had an engine out! Good save That flame out and inverted exploding splat was gut wrenching!! Why'd he lose control when it flamed out? That was just terrible. To bad, that was a lot of time and money. The paint scheme on the USAF F-104 was the paint of the target drone conversion, NQF-104 or something like that,wasn't it? Cool variant.
Haha, funny story about the 262: I used to own that very same model as seen in this video, and sometimes it actually did shut down one of two motors during takeoff (due to a bad battery at that time). I’m sure he just got lucky on that landing, miscalculating the where the edge of the runway was by a bit. It has seen worse though, I ended up losing radio signal far out and ended up "landing" it in the river next to our airfield... It made a great float plane though! 😂 When it comes to the L-39, the gas turbine had a major malfunction leading to what is belived to be shrapnell severing major power lines, thus rendering the flight controls useless. And I agree, the paint scheme on that big F-104 is somewhat unusual and very cool. Trond Hammerstad did a great job on that one, for sure. Cheers! 😎👍
I will make more videos once the covid restrictions are lifted from my local community government. Currently I'm not allowed to go visit the field because it is located outside our local borders. There will be more, but not just yet (unfortunately).
First (video of 2020)!
:DDD
Does not look like a winter weather tho ! :D
That’s the magic of moviemaking: I get to choose the seasons myself 😁😎
@@RCTommy Hahahaha!
The p 51’s landings were so buttery smooth and it is so satisfying to watch it land
I totally agree. One of my favorites when it comes to editing as well. Cheers! 😎👍
That was the new Eflite 1.5m? Possibly safe on. But very nice.
Some of the most beautiful landings Ive ever seen ...
Thanks Tommy. Very scale looking and flying fighter jets. Good job on the pilot with the blown out tire.
Thank you, nick kennedy. And I totally agree, the guys from Red Bull are extraordinarily good at what they do. Cheers! 😁👍

So many skidding turns from base to final at the beginning of the video. That's bad mojo. Those F-104 pilots are good!
1:09... that was close! xDDD
2:30 -> Glorious landing!
Fantastic video as always Tommy! :)
Thank you, the first one made me chuckle a little 😂👍
Wonderful video!
Pilot P-51 master landing !
Why did crash l-39 happen at 5:45?
Thank you😊
As far as I know, it crashed because of a super rare and catastrophic engine failure.

Magnificent Video Quality... It amplifies the aircraft's beauty.
Thank you 😁
Long time awaited ! Thanks Tommy ! The P51 pilot deserve the nickname : Kiss landing ! And thanks for reposting the thing ...
Thanks 😎
Thank you😁👍
The best channel on You TUBE!
Wow, thank you Tomek Sz! Much appreciated 😁
Yuhu! I was wondering when you will upload again and here we go! Thanks :-)
I have been ill for a few weeks (since before the Christmas holidays), add that to a lot of extra work at my day job... That being said, I will continue to make videos in the future, so stay tuned. Cheers😊👍

Ugh, I love aerodynamics, how the plane "floats" in the air. 1:21 for example.
Absolute killer video which finally made me subscribe. I keep watching your other landing videos on a regular basis, keep 'em coming!
Thank you, I truly appreciate it. There will be more videos in this series during 2020, so stay tuned. Cheers! 😁👍

I can’t agree more. Cheers! 😁👍
There's a lot of great flying happening here. Much respect for the pilots. (NC/USA)

@@RCTommy We're all glad you are there to make these excellent videos. Besides, who else could capture Jan and his now world famous Ostrich Walk?
darrellid, good point😁
Your videos are amazing!!! Love it. Thanks for posting.
So many starfighters!
I love this compilations
Omg the p-51 landings are incredible so satisfying
Sensational quality, I love your videos! Keep em coming, always fun to watch
Thank you! There will be more videos in the near future. Cheers! 😊👍
BRILLIANT VIDEO AND FLYING WOW!
Thank you😁
Great fun to watch........you guys really make it look easy, superb airspeed control on final! Regards, Jimp
Thank you, I agree: The pilots really knows how to fly a proper approach 😁
Great stuff Tommy !! As always !
Thank you, Richard, I appreciate it 😁👍
Herlig Tommy!! Denne må jeg bare få dele litt rundt, bra jobba ;)
Takk for det, Bjørnar 😁👍
Awesome Tommy. 👍🏼🇺🇸✌🏼

Everyday is Starfighter day 🤘😎👍
Great video,,,,,😎
Thank you😁👍
Like the videos! Keep em coming!!!
Will watch thnxs 👌🛩️
Very good and the big crash is in good 👌🛩️
I BET YOU THIS WARTHDOG HAS ELECTRON RETRACTS WITH BRAKES!! TALK TO ME TOMMY,AND GOOD NIGHT.
marios kalogeropoulos, I believe you may be correct 🤔 Good night! 😎👍
On the freewing A-10, I use stock (straight) legs with Shulman brakes.
Nice video
Yes first like 👌😀
Wohoo 😁👍
W00t!
🎅🏻
Double-w00t!
Shit that albatross was terrible looked like and engine failure when it was inverted rip !
5:55. First non-landing!
we need new videos
I will make more videos once the covid restrictions are lifted from my local community government. Currently I'm not allowed to go visit the field because it is located outside our local borders. There will be more, but not just yet (unfortunately).
