I don't know what you are trying to "teach". Not only did you endanger all the people on the ground you also endangered all the IFR traffic by violating the FARs. Trying to scud run on a cross country is suicide. All it takes is to get into a area that you have clouds closed in on you and no airport to land at and you die. Unfortunately you may kill someone on the ground and make us all look bad. There is a reason that to fly as a commercial pilot you must be IFR current to fly more than 50 miles from your departure airport. If you own your own plane and expect to use it for cross country you should be IFR current and train to use it. Because you are going to find yourself stuck somewhere and you will want to bend the rules to get back home. If not just expect that the plane is for your hobby and to go get lunch on perfectly clear weekends.
If you read the beginning, you would know that he's not trying to teach anyone Mr superiority complex. He simply is trying to show that he made a poor decision in the go/no go decision making and doesn't want anyone to make the same mistake. You don't need to rub it in jackass
That could be the feeling... however the most dangerous time to have a turbulence is at landing (actully, that is the single dangerous moment to have a turbulence, and its called windshear)
This is a remarkable video. I just don't get it. There are many circumstances under which it's not obvious that you're flying into a cloud or another weather phenomenon that obscures visibility. In this video, a 600+ hour pilot who has instrument rating flies directly into an obvious and clearly defined ceiling. I don't get it. Not only was it obviously too low for VFR as seen from the ground, but also the ceiling was painfully apparent all the way from the takeoff; you could even see where the ceiling met the horizon in the distance! I'm deeply confused.
@@thomasblassick6960 He thought he'd get by flying 100ft below the ceiling but suddenly flew into a lower part of the ceiling. Flying 100ft below ceiling is acceptable if you're enroute and you suddenly encounter a low ceiling, but it's not acceptable to fly into a low ceiling condition right after takeoff and think that you can safely fly to your destination.
KPLU airport elevation 538’ msl. Said went into clouds at 1800’ msl. Looks like you were way higher than 1262’ agl. I’m guessing about 2000’ agl so that put you at 2538’ msl. Pretty close to METAR. That was a no go from the start flying VFR on a cross country. If you are IFR rated then you should have gotten current and filed as such. Lesson learned hopefully.
This is severe enough to already threaten the rudder or stabilizer in some planes (on planes where they need to safe money by only looking at the most important things for flying)
Don’t turn so sharply in IMC. standard rate turns only. Also, had you caught it you probably could have safely descended and turned VMC but in any case…. Was that the stall horn going off in the turn???
nothing wrong is this video PEOPLE. all save and clear. oh ps the c5 can NOT stop in 3times it own lengths. its CLOSE TO THAT BUT NOT 3TIMES IT LENGTHS.
Bro this shit was NOTHING compared to the flight I had from NEW YORK to LAX flying thru that cyclone and over the Rockies in WINTER. Jesus that plane was shaking and dropping for 2+hrs … there was ZERO service. Everybody was seated and even the pilots were shaken by the time we landed.
@@JD-vh5sn bruh idk the FKN terminology all I know is there was a big spiral thing on the map and when we went over it the plane shook violently for like 30 minutes
@@thedisappointed2530 Yeah Colorado is known for its enormous supercell/mesocyclones. All of what you describe is perfectly reasonable. And yes, even pilots can get stressed due to ongoing turbulence. It just adds some noise and stress to an already difficult job.
2600 foot overcast is not good VFR, especially if you're trying to fly over pretty high hills to Astoria (unless you were going to go around and follow Columbia river, even then not a lot of available altitude). I think your attitude towards "good" VFR needs a bit of recalibration. You could see those low clouds from the ramp, come on.
exactly, I doubt any of the people on these videos have ever come across even heavy turbulence, let alone 'severe'. If you can hold on to your camera/phone and film it, it's not severe. period.
Because vehicle but cleaning the unpainted fenders is a headache u have to back to black to have it nice because it gets dirty if I buy it I’ll color match it
