David_H Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 Wow. Was a go-around not an option? That seemed like a high-risk maneuver at 100' given the circumstances shown. Even though I tilted my head during the video to get the same sight picture (for full effect of course), I can't say I'd try that one with passengers onboard... even with Thunderstruck playing in the background 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carusoam Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 Two people making decisions.... Which made the crazier selection? 1) Circling 100’ off the deck in an ancient 727 with terrible power response times... 2) The guy video taping under the ancient 727 doing aerobatics... Or did it just look like that? Or is that the new MSFT flight sim program? PP thoughts only, not a pro pilot... Best regards, -a- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safety is an extremely relative concept in Mogadishu i'd bet . 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen worse things happen...Safety is just perceived differently depending on your circumstances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
