Damn I thought I was about to see a roll over after that UH1 Iroquois/Huey belly flopped onto the ground. That pilot did a fantastic job rescuing his bird. Nothing but love for Japan... awesome video.
I was a Huey CE and on many check rides and training flights and the Instructor Pilot always told the student who was afraid to flare... "You got a tail skid, use it!" .... In 14 years I only replaced 1 bent one, wish I would have kept it.
@@HNTR308 I'm sorry but your opinion is actually very wrong my grandpa was in the United States Marine Corps during the Vietnam and he road in these helicopters and all the veterans said it's one of the loudest helicopters however the Chinook helicopter is also one of the loudest to because of the double helicopter blades but the Huey is still one of the loudest cases close

@@samcharles1166 You should be concentrating more on how he recovered, circled around, and landed once more. That takes a lot of skill. Don't judge people by their mistakes, judge them on how they recover.
You're obvs not a pilot lol. First thing you're taught about landings: If you dont land first touch, better to go around and try again. (Its cause if you go down for another landing straight away after quite a big bounce, you could be landing on broken hardware but if you go up and around, the ground crew can help tell you if anything is broken before you land again)

@@thefreedomguyuk I guess it would depend for us, the hours flown, we had 10 hour and so forth inspections, and deficiencies noted. But that landing yea, we would be inspecting a few things, lol..
I don't think that was a UH-1H tho, the nose was too pointy if you get what I'm saying. The UH-1H has more bold and thick nose this was a bit to sharp. Perhaps it was different version. Can't tell which tho.
