Gear up landing despite warning horn!
These guys listen to an alarm telling them to put their landing gear down and can't seem to remember to do it. They ruin their propeller, the bottom of their plane, and the chance anyone will ever fly with them. (www.youtube.com) 更多...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Unbelievable!!
GUMP - Gas, Undercarriage, Mixture, Prop. Even if you're flying a fixed gear aircraft, it still works.
That is what I was taught in the '60s when I was learning on a Mooney. Continued when I went from an Ovation in 2005 to a Columbia 400. Same drill. Only difference is "3 in the green" or "down and welded".
there are two types of pilot's, those that have, and those that still have it to do.
My old flying instructor once reminded us in class, "There are two types of pilots: Those who HAVE landed gear up, and those who WILL." I'm not saying everyone will, but never say never.
I can remember back in 68, I was with a guy in a 182 that had just came out with retract gear. We were slow and low flying, looking at some land South of Deming NM and had the gear overide pulled. He decided we would stop in at Deming and grab a coke before going back to Tucson. About the time he flared, he looked at the light panel, said hang on(and some other choice words), and had just enough speed/altitude to flip to one side on the grass, killing the engine(on purpose) while doing so. Prop stopped straight across and gear was up. Grass dididn't tear up the bottom. Got a crane out, lifted the bird, cranked the gear down, got our coke and went back to Tucson
