Bullitt Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 (edited) Just a general WTF moments type of thread. And to start things off I present you the inspiration to this thread... Edited May 5, 2012 by Bullitt 1
VTB_Ray Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Hahah! I got a good laugh out of that. That was wild! Funny how the pilot punches out, gets up and just has that "wtf just happened?!" look about him. :lol: I've had some pretty good crashes while trying to takeoff/land in a 30 kt direct crosswind.

airdog Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Not very crazy but sure had a WTF moment at the end. I think the comments at the end are funnier than what happened.

leafer Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 1v1 with L39 - we collided. btw, this...first time i managed to land n remain right side up on all the wheels. ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
Bullitt Posted May 6, 2012 Author Posted May 6, 2012 I figure there are tons of good material like this as crazy as this bird can be at times if you aren't careful. Plus maybe it's me but I'm just enjoying playing around any way I can think until some good combat missions start coming around to focus this learning towards. For example....
Bullitt Posted May 17, 2012 Author Posted May 17, 2012 I may not be good with this whole propeller taildragger business but I'll be damned if I don't have my fun/exciting moments as a result it would seem. I need to hop in the A-10 for a bit so I can pretend like I know what I'm doing for a while. Another Surprise Landing... And a good ol' random takeoff fail.
