next week it will be on channels that show weird stuff and the will say its a glitch in the matrix like all those other videos of planes that are frozen in the sky
Kinda of reminded me a video I saw of air show routine “drunk farmer” I think was name. Very skilled pilot performer attacks plane and takes off almost crashing constantly. The guy said it took a lot skill and practice to fly that bad. Impressive! No room for error. I could easily ride a long with that guy to provide a free vomit trail for the crowd to follow!
@@simeon2851 it’s very entertaining skit.. he did a amazing job using terrain dipping below a hill, touch a wing .. I know it’s all planned but to crazy. No margin for error.
I had no idea how nimble they could be, I'm still not entirely convinced it's not a little toy plane. The first bit reminded me of when a game map ends and the NPC doesn't despawn or turn around in time
That toilet paper drop reminded me of something -- my father was in USN Lighter Than Air. He told me that when he did training in balloons he had two instruments: a compass and a roll of toilet paper. The purpose of the toilet paper? Tear off a sheet and throw it out. If it went up, that meant you were descending. If it went down, you were ascending. :-)
I was fighting a headwind trying to get my Champ home one time and it took a few minutes over 3 hours to go 99 miles. My girlfriend in the back seat said the wheels rolled backward when we finally touched down. (She married me anyway.)
LOLing out loud! Did you make her promise to marry you in order to get her on the ground safely? Sounds like you could have timed the speed of your plane with a sundial.
Nice job in the announcer’s booth today Juan! What a treat to see you up there with Danny. I can’t believe the non-stop winds this morning ; “Hold onto your lawn furniture!”
When I was a young fella in the early 1960s, my mother used to do ironing for military families at Dow AFB. A Major (B-52 pilot) told us stories of his training in Texas where they'd fly light planes like Cubs backward like touch and go's.... Take off into the wind, raise the nose and let the wind take it backward, touch down where he lifted off and on & on they'd go.
Impressive aero ballet!! I saw Coast Guard helos blown backwards during SAR flights in near hurricane conditions. Chopper max speed 125 mph, we experienced continued 90 mph winds with gusts, well, you do the math. I can sure appreciate the pilot's stick and rudder work. Right on the edge. Salúd!
Man you just cant beat the flying characteristics of a cub.. Its been around for decades but still loved by so many... Probably the most forgiving plane of all time !!
That was interesting. I remember watching a Stinson 108 trying to leave after the Mojave Air Race in 1977 taking off and climbing in a hover without any forward progress, finally turning downwind, at which point it looked like he had lit Jato units - he just couldn't make any forward progress in the headwind! BTW, I was glad to see you are flying Harvey, I flew into Prescott in my 310C about 20 years ago and parked next to him on the transient ramp, and thought the big rabbit on thr tail was cool. IIRC, at that time the phrase "Wabbit Twansit" was painted below the bunny. I didn't note the tail number back then, but the plane stuck in my memory' ,especially as my C model is my favorite of the 310s I have owned over the years (now going on 23 years with it).
What this video showed me? MOST of these Fatals we keep seeing occur, seemingly more & more each year? Absolutely ARE preventable as Dan Gryder & Juan keep talking about. The bad part, is why it's taken these guys, to try and create solutions to fix it. This pilot SHOWS how much time there is for recovery, and, that, if pilots remain level headed, FOLLOW the mental checklists there are only precious seconds to go through, many of those dead now, would be alive today. Now granted, this is a special Cub, but his circumstances are also more EXTREME, than many of those now no longer with us, faced. "Nose down" must become 2nd nature, even though it goes against everything our mind is telling us to do. I thought this guy was gonna crash, several times. That was truly an insane, and informative, thing to watch. Amazing Juan.
I have hovered and backed up in the Cub many times. What is the big deal? Hangs on the prop at about 38-40. Winds aloft are nearly always 10-20 more than at ground level. It takes a windy day but not a crazy one to hover a Cub. Fun is on a sunny day to put ppl on the ground in the shade or some guy on a bicycle has this shadow next to him for miles. Ahh, Cub fun.
Omg i do this with my rc planes all the time!! Awesome to see full size planes doing it too! That pilot is trying his hardest to match stall speed with the headwind and keep from stalling out a wing, you can see his rudder flipping back and forth like mad hahaha
I don’t fly, but it seems many folks put it into the ground the first time one of those little moves surprises them. The guy must have incredible feel for air currents.
I lived there for almost a year while on a project at Edward's AFB. I really enjoyed the town with the exception of the wind and the trains. I miss the red house BBQ the most.
Saw this guy at the 2021 California Capital Airshow, amazing to watch and very entertaining. Never seen an aircraft move like he maneuvered his aircraft before.
During a takeoff with the 727 number 2 engine produces surge and compresor stall due to the heavy crosswind component. We begun the takeoff roll with engines 1 and 3 and as long as we increase our speed we can increase power in #2.
Never mind that low flying. Look at that mega lee wave lift your missing out on in the background. Glider pilot's dream right there with those cigar shaped clouds
I actually have this exact airplane as an RC model, and the first day I flew it, the winds were close to 30 MPH and it was just like that. First test flight = 10 minutes. Total distance travelled = -10 feet.
Thanks for your coverage of this years Reno Air Race. Between your coverage, Juan, and Stihl's made this years race really special for me. Your's was much more exciting and informative, though.
On my dual cross country from Dodge City KS to Hutchinson to Salina back to Dodge City I took off on 32 and as soon as I was air bound the instructor took over. Full flaps (40 degrees) and he flew the 152 backwards. Then he said,,,, If I ever see you doing this, you won't get your license!
Wow, it's scary watching that...usually what you see amateurs or some unfortunate unconscious soul doing just before the plume of smoke. *be safe guys.* Thanks JB 😎🇺🇸
I flew a Schweitzer 2-33 sailplane at a negative ground speed in weak wave lift just south of Lexington, VA. The wave was far downwind from the primary wave. I started to climb soon after the tow plane left. Heading west into the wind I gained about 1,500 feet to about reach about 3,500 ft before I hit turbulence. I then slowed my IAS to the point where my ground speed was negative. I don’t remember how much above stall speed I was, but I don’t remember experiencing any incipient stalls. traveled eastward, with no change in heading, until I was in turbulence and my sink rate increased. Then I increased IAS until I was back in the smooth wave lift and flew westward climbing as before. I made three west-east passes before I turned and headed eastbound to the land at the glider port. Even though I was in an insulated ski suit the cold became an issue. I also realized my fellow glider club members on the ground deserved a turn at the fun. The only tricky part was making sure I was not blown downwind on the base leg during landing. There was a farm-field fence we were trained to never get downwind. It was strange touching down at a high IAS to have a normal ground speed. We were trained to focus on IAS and ignore ground speed in case we had to land off-field and didn’t have our normal landing pattern landmarks as a check. There had been a low-altitude landing crash when someone pulled back on the stick during a low downwind turn because the ground speed was higher than they expected.
Mr. Juan, I hope you read this. I have a question: Why wasn't the VC10 design implemented/continued into newer commercial planes. Are there more cons to the 'pushers'/engines at the tail end than engines under/at the wings?
Reminds me a lot of the old "Billy Bob won a Cub Ride" where Billy Bob flies off when the straight man gets out to remove the chocks. It was always a crowd favorite at the local airshows.
That looks like Kent Pietsch's (Jelly Belly) act. Looks like incompetence, but it's extreme skill with 90 HP. Landing on a truck is one of his moves. He used to have a fake 'stealing a plane' routine, not sure if he still does. This might not be him, but that act sure looks like his.
I watched this Was there that Saturday announcer said cross winds variable 31 to 33 mph This pilot my hats off Like one of the best aerobatic pilots 👍👌😇
Fantastic wave clouds in the distance !!!! Sailplane Nirvana. A UK gliding club used to do this in an old T21 open cockpit glider in strong winds. Dive to land spoilers open, then close the spoilers and climb away , slow to fly backwards and repeat !
Reminds me of reading about Ruth Nichols Setting the Diesel powered altitude record, climbing above the clouds, she had been backing up for quite a distance.
The way the plane turned at 1:15 reminds me of auto-rotation maneuvers in helicopters. For those that don't know, auto-rotation is applied when you've lost your rear propeller and you're spinning uncontrollably. As you're spinning around, you still have control over the angle and collective of the main propeller, so you pitch the prop in the direction you want to go when your nose is pointed that way, then pull back when you're facing away. After you gain enough momentum, the helicopter will stabilize and you'll be flying in a straight line.
Legend has it he's still trying to put that thing on the ground.
came here to say this :P
Pilot looks like he's having too much fun, lol
Thinking the same thing...................
That would be fun!!
The Pilot: "OH MAHH GOOD WHAT IS HAPPENNINNGGG HELPPPPP"

That was my first thought as well. It certainly looks like the same plane.

Absolutely beautiful.
It's a toy plane..

MrHerping what are you doing here
That is one seriously good pilot. He did the loop in the strong wind, so many acrobatic maneuvers. Great vid.

Those lenticular clouds tell a lot about wind conditions. Wishing everyone a safe and fun time.
The lenticulars have been a constant backdrop at Reno this week. ......... Now how about a gliders race?

Wondering if that Cub was an aerobatic version.
...this Looks INSANELY DANGEROUS....THATS SOME rad piloting.....thanks from Hearst Castle California..
That is not an airplane; it's a fixed-wing helicopter.
Prior to WWII my dad had a 1931 Curtis Pusher with a 3-cylinder radial. He would say "In a strong wind, the haystacks would pass me."
One of the funniest flights I've watched!!!

Tucker air shows is the best act on the block!
That's real flyin there! Just like a bird. Looks like too much fun.
Good to see us Ozzy's are represented their with the L39 parked up on the ramp in your video.
Did notice the flag on the vertical stabiliser. 😊
I swear that's how it looks watching the hawks after I feed the squirrels out back. Well done to them for being able to capture that feeling.
your announcing for the STOL was fantastic....so much enthusiasm.
Incredible flying and incredible video footage.
Oh man would you look at those lenticular clouds. Glider pilots out there salivating.
Glad for no mishaps, you know how it goes when you're showing off. =)
He’s vibing
He reminds me of when I was a kid I couldn't wait for spring time and the windy days to fly my kite.
This is mastery, nice work.
Reno air races are the best
i think this is part of his show
Is he still trying to land to this day ? 😂
I'm not sure that my stomach would enjoy actually being in that plane...but that was very cool to watch. Great stuff.

I lived in Tehachapi pass , flying backwards was a common occurrence in lighter aircraft especially it not refitted with high horsepower engines.
I lived there for almost a year while on a project at Edward's AFB. I really enjoyed the town with the exception of the wind and the trains.
I miss the red house BBQ the most.
Saw this guy at the 2021 California Capital Airshow, amazing to watch and very entertaining. Never seen an aircraft move like he maneuvered his aircraft before.

How's the upsidedown 150 doing? Heard you were helping with the rebuild!
Is it real or RC plane
Real
The guy has a fun routine. We were sincerely worried about him trying to land on the truck that day, glad he finally gave up
Thank you very much, another great articulate video. Spike Sousa, Old Naples fl.
That looked totally insane. Wow. Extra so since yhat plane manages with so low true air speed.
My flight instructor saw this live and said he landed on top of a car!!!
He did the next day in the same kinda wind!
I used to know a guy with an RC piper cub that did exactly the same thing with it.

Did he ever land or is he still up there?? I'd like to think it's the latter....
Bro this legit looks like an rc plane or a game or something, crazy skills!
When a plane is floating like that is the pilot providing any thrust or is the wind over the wings providing all the lift?
Later.
Still have to maintain "airspeed" above stall speed within the air parcel.
I watched this Was there that Saturday announcer said cross winds variable 31 to 33 mph This pilot my hats off Like one of the best aerobatic pilots 👍👌😇
THAT, IS FLYING!!!!
BRAVO!!!

Are there any incidents where the wind suddenly slows down, then the plane just stalls because well, no windspeed nor ground speed...
We do this with radio control planes on windy days

Where is the landing!?
How many hours on the computer did you spend to create this CGI video!
Video was way too short. I could watch that all day.

The way the plane turned at 1:15 reminds me of auto-rotation maneuvers in helicopters.
For those that don't know, auto-rotation is applied when you've lost your rear propeller and you're spinning uncontrollably.
