World's Shortest Runway: Extreme Short Take-Off and Landing
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 июн 2015
- Here's why you don't need a long runway!
Expert demonstration of the outstanding capabilities of the Zenith STOL CH 701 "Sky Jeep" light sport utility kit airplane from Zenith Aircraft Company: www.zenithair.com
First introduced in 1986, the STOL CH 701 aircraft was developed as an “off-airport” short take-off and landing kit aircraft to fulfill the demanding requirements of both sport pilots and first-time builders. With the STOL CH 701, designer Chris Heintz combined the features and advantages of a “real” airplane with the short-field capabilities of an “ultralight” aircraft. The aircraft features fixed leading-edge slats for high lift, full-span flaperons (both ailerons and flaps), an all-flying rudder, and durable all-metal construction.
While the basic design has remained the same, many significant improvements have been introduced over the years, including a higher useful load, easier and quicker build kits, and more detailed drawings and step-by-step assembly instructions.
Short-field performance is where the STOL CH 701 aircraft truly excels: It is airborne in less than 120 feet of unprepared grass, or 90 feet of hard surface, at gross weight. Rotation is possible by the time full throttle setting is applied, and lift-off can begin at 25 mph (in ground effect, with no wind) - all within less than four seconds from stand still. Of course, any headwind shortens the time and distance required for take off.
The STOL CH 701 was not designed to be just another ‘pretty’ light aircraft, but was engineered to offer outstanding short take-off and landing performance, all-metal durability, and unparalleled ease of construction. With form following function, the STOL CH 701 looks like a ‘Sky Jeep’, as it is often called by its owners.
Popular since 1986, there are hundreds of STOL CH 701 aircraft flying around the world! Not many of the more than 500 STOL CH 701’s flying today can be found at airports - most are operated from short off-airport grass fields, in backyard fields and in remote areas. The aircraft’s all-metal construction makes it suitable for continuous outdoor storage - providing their owners with continuous cost savings (no hanger or tie-down fees).
The STOL CH 701 offers comfortable two-place side-by-side seating in an ergonomically designed 40-inch wide cabin. The cabin interior is designed to provide comfort for two adults. Large doors on either side allow easy access to the cabin from both sides, and can be quickly removed.
A new optional single-piece formed acrylic bubble door is available to maximize cabin width. The door is hinged at the top and each door is domed 3 1/4″ (82 mm.) to provide maximum additional cabin space. The full bubble door provides outstanding side and downward visibility. The door is fitted with the standard locking door latch (at bottom front of each door).
Better Visibility and More Cabin Width: The cabin is fitted with a large instrument panel and dual controls accessible from both the left and right seats. The center-mounted control column (stick) can easily be used from either side, and does not limit visibility of the instrument panel. Dual throttle controls are mounted on both sides of the panel for easy access. The panel measures about 34 inches across by 8.5 inches tall in the center to allow for custom avionics installations.
The dual rudder pedals also steer the nose-wheel, and are equipped with standard hydraulic toe-brakes on the pilot’s side. The baggage area is located directly behind the seats for easy access.
The standard tricycle gear configuration maximizes forward visibility when taxiing, while also providing the added benefit of a level cabin while on the ground, to facilitate access to the cabin and to maximize pilot and passenger comfort.
Unlike other high-wing designs, the STOL CH 701’s wings are positioned above the cabin and fuselage to provide pilot and passengers with superior visibility. The “Above-Cab” wings taper at the wing root to maximize upward visibility while also providing superior side visibility, as the wings are located above the pilot’s head.
As all seasoned bush pilots will confirm, off-airport operations require an aircraft with superior visibility - for operations in tight areas and to allow the pilot to choose suitable landing areas. The large “wrap-around” windows and “Above-Cab” wings allow unparalleled visibility. The tricycle gear configuration also allows excellent forward visibility while on the ground - crucial when operated in off-airport fields.

I used to live in Alaska, riding my bike I watched what I tought was an airplane coming in for a crash landing only to land in a convience store parking lot and taxi behind the store and into his back yard.
Love it! Thanks for sharing
Wow, that really IS a convenience store!
I can just imagine someone on a flight from one place to another, "Hey you hungry? lets stop at 7/11 real quick"
Ehh you guys up north of alaska are lucky XD
Gunther Ultrabolt Novacrunch that must have been kinda funny though
Me: "Mom, can we go to the airport?"
Mom: "We have airport at home"
Airport at home:
this one better than nothing
Literally though, I have a much much bigger driveway. Like much much much bigger
SHUT UP

Haahha👍 the dodo in action
本物や!!
Try landing the jet on the small unpaved landing strip in north blaine county by the lake.
Kkk
HAHAH gta in real life
Man, right in the numbers!
With a great plane👍
Before the numbers even ended!
He could land on my driveway. What a champ.
I'm reminded of a joke where an inexperienced pilot does a hard, screeching landing and says "Wow, that's the shortest runway I've ever seen!" and his equally inexperienced friend/co-pilot turns around and says "Yeah, but look how wide it is!"
XD
Lol

lol love that
Years ago I was at a small airport in Utah, when the winds really picked up. My partner and I went out to make sure the tie downs on our 500 were cinched tight and as we walked out to the ramp, I noticed a Piper Cub with tundra tires just over the fence flying directly into the wind, as I knelt down to check the tension on the skids, I looked back over my shoulder and the Piper Cub looked like he was in almost the same position. The Cub pilot landed with almost zero forward airspeed, he then crab taxied across the infield to get behind a hanger before shutting off the engine. We later talked to the pilot and he said he'd been on power line patrol and his approach and final were dead into the wind. As the wind speed increased he was full throttle on his final and at 500 feet AGL. was pretty sure at times he wasn't moving forward at all.
Why would full throttle make a difference to forward speed
In keeping the plane moving forward in heavy winds in relation to the ground.
@@DavidHotz21 Maybe to help disrupt or chop up the air before it hits the wings I’m not really sure either
@@DavidHotz21 Are you really asking that question? If so, please never try flying an aircraft.
@DavidHotz21 you're joking right?
I remember flying these things. My dad would get me one every month or so. They're easy to assemble. I was a kid and I had absolutely no trouble at all!
The wings, the fuselage, the propeller...no problem. The main thing you had to be careful about was how many twists you put in the rubber band.
Sooner or later the dog would jump up and grab it and, well, that was it!
haha
your dad must have been rich wow
I used to work for this company back in the early 1980s, when it was called Zenair And was located in Nobleton Ontario.
My last job I did there was assembling a wing for an AcroZ. Can’t remember who’s plane it was for, whether it was a customers or the company plane flown by Red the companies test pilot at the time. Red was a retired RCAF pilot. I also fondly remember the Zenair Cricket and the zipper.
Glen, I worked for them for a short while during the time they were building the first CH701. Chris test flew it and didn't even let they guys that built it watch the maiden flight. I was working on the CH22 I think it was. We were going to set up and produce the plane in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Somehow that plan got thwarted and they moved to a gawd awful, gnat infested place in Georgia. I think that plan went down the crapper too as they didn't produce any planes that I know of.
@@krisknowlton5935 Hi Kris,
Thanks for commenting.
So you worked for Chris in their US location?
After Nobleton Ontario they moved a bit North West.
@@RC-Flight yes I did. But it was not the factory they have in Missouri (I think that is where they are.) Chris' son Mathieu was running the show there. He was probably just a kid when you were working for Zenair.
... and the Wright Brothers worked so damn hard to glide off of a sand dune a few hundred feet.
stereopolice I prefer Santos Dumont.
I had to look him up. Thanks for the info, I learned something. Regards ...
Look for Santos Dumont's flight at Paris, 1906.
If they could see us now...........
Reminds me of an incident I saw with my very own eyes nearly 40 years ago. I was a member of a gliding club in Australia back then, and one Saturday evening after operations had finished for the day and before the beer started to flow, our two tug pilots on duty for the day bet each other who could use the Piper Pawnee for the shortest take-off. Starting point was the fence-line near the wind-sock, really an across runway take-off, about 30 yards back then, well the first off really gunned the engine, full flaps hard elevator after take off, and was off, he really climbed out hard, and was over the Wireless Mast on the Gliding club roof, a height of 150 feet above the roof, but he must have had at least another 100 feet over that mast. In all the distance would have been about 300 yards from take off to that point, truly a nice piece of flying anywhere in my book. I don't think the second guy thought it was possible, 'cause he never tried it.
Well wasn’t that fucking interesting ?
Shit. I' ll never leave my beach towel unattended again 😂
Most people are pleased if they can land ON the numbers. This machine can land IN the numbers. (I've been in one, though we didn't land quite that short.)
The disadvantage is that, if you get used to that kind of performance, you may expect other aircraft to behave the same way, and that can kill you.
On a windy day it takes of backwards :-)

My hallway in my house is longer than that runway. Doolittle would be proud.
That runway is way too long for that aircraft!!
kdmc40 lol
Maybe it's just the right length, and incredibly wide?
He takes off like planes use to do on Air Craft Carriers , he raves up the engine , holds the brakes , then releases the brakes & takes off!!!!! Pretty cool !!!
The point is it can do a STOL in a very very short distance!
I find this inspiring more than anything!

Great flying.
Irritating sound track. when will aviation video producers realize almost nobody wants to listen to cheezy music? We'd almost all prefer engine sounds with insightful, relevant commentary from actual aviators. Exciting music is just a distraction. It doesn't make anybody excited about flying; we're excited about flying because we're pilots. the music just gets in the way.
+FightClub MeetsHere Most of the pilots are older guys. So, this is their idea of cool music, this was the music they listened to while they were still young and doing the Carlton.
AmericanFartBully It's not the style of music that's bad, it's that they have music at all (instead of airplane sounds preferably with a voiceover talking about something aeronautical: performance specs, construction methods, maneuvering, engine managment, etc.).
When will sellers understand 'exciting' music is not necessary, in fact it only gets in the way. Pilots are already excited about flying, they don't need any music, cheesy or otherwise, to get excited about flying.
It's just basic salesmanship: sell the sizzle, not the steak. STOP THE MUSIC IN AIRPLANE VIDEOS ! We want AERONAUTICS, not NOT N O T MUSIC ! !
+FightClub MeetsHere No one likes a sound snob, use the volume dial.
+FightClub MeetsHere this video was very obviously recorded as a promo for the ch701, which isn't even made anymore.
+M9199bro
The Zenith STOL CH 701 is still very much in production and available as an easy-to-build kit.
www.zenithair.net/introduction-701/
Looks like fun! Would be interesting to see a video showing take of landing distances with different head wind speeds.
Huh ig that at some point it will just take of vertically as an helicopter xD
Crazy... Congrats to these pilots for being that good with their planes!
Wow better tie it down when it's breezy
Lol it might fly away
Or when sneezing
Don't be fooled gentleman. This require high piloting skills and specific wind conditions.
+youreale Who's trying to fool anyone? Of course one needs to be a properly trained pilot and the right wind conditions helps shorten take-off and landing rolls. See more: ruclips.net/p/PLE9903C6A444AFF9C
Zenith Aircraft Company Don't take this wrong guys, I mean that one could think that such precision takeoff and landing is a piece of cake when in fact it requires carefull preparation and proper training.
+Zenith Aircraft Company Not to mention planes built to land and take-off from extremely short runways! You can't do this in a Pper Cherokee unless you have a 40+ knot headwind or something.
+youreale No, anyone can do this and the wind is not a factor.
+Rocangus f
Amazing aircraft by the folks at Zenith! Great engineering y’all!
In 52 seconds he took off flew and then descended and landed.
In the mean time it takes me 10 mins to shit in toilet with full force.
Life is good
mr rambo This comment made me laugh so damn hard.
LOL
Man I was having a bad day until I read that!
Fucking rambo
Ha ha ha .. right said .. I am in toilet now by the way ..
45 second return flight, skills!
that's the shortest take of I have ever seen. looks like less than 20 feet unbelievable
Jonas Guitars It looks like it's Vr speed is 20 knots.
It's the landing that's much more difficult/important.
look up super cubs they take off within 10 or less if the conditions are right
JustBass what's a knots
Jonas Guitars Go look up Quicksilver takeoffs.
When you should've been a helicopter pilot, but messed up picking your flight school classes.
Brings a new meaning to “landing on the numbers”.
Creo que no se trata de eso, simplemente estoy impresionado con el
despegue que hizo el avión en un espacio tan corto....¡¡FELICIDADES!!
If bet if the headwinds are strong enough you could takeoff and land vertically. The same winds could also just take the plane and trash it into the ground as well.
I have seen a Piper J-3 take off into a headwind, slow, basically back down the length of the runway and land. No doubt this could do the same.
It doesn't need a runway.
Yee..
haaaahhahaaaaaaaaa!!!! i'm agreed with u
that's basically carbon crafters slogan lol
broadcast20081 haha it just needs a driveway!
How
Wow! I can't believe this. How that aircraft takeoff and landing on the very short runway?? Amazing!
I’m seeing leading edge slats , slotted flaps and a very light airframe . So yea this STOL Aircraft can do it . This thing looks like it has stol = to a a F stork .
*Crazy* maybe this thing can Start Taxi and Land on a Wing of a A380 :D
Next idea
Land that thing on an F-104 wing XD
Or land it in a antonnov 225
Maybe it can takeoff on the wing too
(Smart-ass comment)
Very funny 😂
@@ShadowRaptor42 Take off and land in the cargo bay.
Great aircraft, been a fan for years.
Yeah, a fan.
Amazing performance
Stunning pilot skills & a aircraft to match.........BRILLIANT !!!
Incredible. It is my life's mission to build one of these bad boys. Does this have the Viking? It sounds like it.
If anyone thinks this is an RC because of man on right of screen @ 1:45 needs to look at scale of man vs. runway and plane as it comes in to land not to mention the trees and size of runway. Awesome plane!!! Hope to build my own.
There used to be a 600’ runway between I 270 and an office building, in Germantown Maryland. The runway is now used as a parking lot.
Dear bush pilots, every other pilot thinks you're insane and the coolest thing to have ever existed.
Plot twist : that’s a regular run way , they’re just giants with even bigger planes
then its just a verry thicc runway lol
That first take off... WOW
That is impressive
STOL is always fascinating to watch.
This would've been a decent video if someone hadn't put a noise track over the top of it, drowning out the sound of the airplane.
SEE ABOVE!
Jon C. that's the kind if music commercial pilots used to play for the stewardesses to dance to....lol
It's normal in aviation videos.
I don't suppose there's any chance of a Boeing 747 landing there then .
I mean... if you try hard enough...
Daniel Mezhiborsky
Lol I love that reply ! 👍
+Daniel Mezhiborsky let me know how that works out for ya, I'll watch from the ground ;)
007K VERTICAL TAKEOFF 747
007K
Yeah I wouldn't recommend watching from the end of the runway , there's a slight chance it may over shoot.
No way! Very cool!!
I like this video, but I want _more_ information. What does the runway length have to be if you're at gross? Minimum weight configurations for demonstration purposes are fine, but how about a real-world use case?
That just depends on how far it takes you to get the wheels in the air.
even my bicycle needs more distance than that aircraft to reach a full stop 😝
that's a RC plane and u see at 1:46 that the man at right is holding a controller.
DeathGloom GT It's a well known kit plane...
Damn, its Gloom GT, it DOES look like an RC transmitter.
My neighbor is a Crop Duster. I've watched him take off and land on a short grass strip. My son's neighbor in North Dallas who helicopters to and from work. Helo pad in his backyard. Noisy for a few minutes, but awesome.
These folks are the best!
Gotta love when flying the pattern takes 30 seconds
I count 57''
Love this. It'll be great in our African backyard.
Pretty cool 😎👍
Awesome piloting skills
Wow, great for tight spots.
Good Video! !! Really Short Take off and Landing! ! excellent music!!! Congratulations !! of Course! a Special Aircraft! and Pilot!!
Love the short stuff!
Just wow. Very impressive
I've never seen an " on the numbers" take off until 1:01 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A friend of mine has 1 of them and we went for a ride in it 1 day. It's not quite a helicopter, but it's not far from it either.
I've hard of landing on the numbers, but you actually take off from the numbers, and only the numbers!
Very good job!
what will it do loaded
Zenith Aircraft Company
Cool plane
Yeah it be great to use in Alaska
Pierre P , 😣😣🎖😤😮😩😮
if it was loaded I would have crashed.("_")
he could nearly land that thing on a helipad.. nice
salute this poilot plus airoplene 4 second take off great engners work
ATC: Cleared for takeoff
Pilot: Uh, we’ve already landed
ATC: NANI?
Any idea of what motor he is using in that?
100-hp Rotax 912ULS
Jason H an internal combustion motor
Highly recommended for drug smuggling.
It only has a useful load of 500lbs, so after subtracting the pilot's weight you're down to what, 250lbs?
Derek Heuring unless that pilot is 6'5 he needs to lose some weight lol.
RA, true, but we're all not like the skinny little ANTIFA dweebs you see on TV either.
Yeah Derek a measly 100 'keys' of Coca is only worth about 30 million wholesale lol!
Derek Heuring plus fuel right? Better weigh under 150.
that is truly amazing. the ability to pick up enough wind in 25 feet without the speed of 60. i truly want to know how to make thay
Great video.☺️
That's not a runway.. that's a ROFL! :p
+1BassJohn Now we have a uses for at the closed malls in the USA.
And how long's the runway? Also, where's the pilot's mom?
+Sol Cooper I think she fell off after the first take off LOL
She's with me.
2 feet by 1 foot
5 seconds from final to the hangar. This pilot knows their trade.
That is impressive !
That's a small plane with a big engine...
Sander Datema sp
100-hp Rotax 912 engine.
Here's what makes this airplane such an effective STOL (short take off and landing) design: www.zenithair.net/high-lift-design/
What are the V1 and Vr speeds of this plane????
Hungry Guy looks like 5kts lol
and a lot of head wind!
here's the real idea behind it (i think) to me it looks like a field for RC planes
Guys it takes a good and experienced pilot to do those kind of take offs and endings.
That’s Quite Fantastic
i can land that on the roof of my house :D (im guessing it was a windy day)
Please leave the music out - it doesn't add anything to your piece is annoying
after a short time. Many thanks!
Awesome!!
impressed good flying.👍
i think this is just a remote control airplane

Piotr CKA No it is not a remote controlled airplane. I was working at Zenith Aircraft when the first CH 701 made it's first flight. I can assure you that the 701 is quite capable of doing what you saw in the video without a headwind.
Watch closely. No pilot in there
What's the aircraft?

Wonderful, my compliments!!
Wow!!! Skilled pilot for sure..
I don't think the thumb nail is an actual runway, probably just for rc planes
Ben Wachtel it isn't the thumbnail is click bait.
dekallium no that runway isn't even in the video, but do you really think that aircraft take off from that daily? Like think man
the aircraft you have been watching was already a RC plane lol
The world's shortest runway is the kind supermodels walk up and down.
