I asked Ryan to describe his world for me to use as a basis for one of the initial voice overs, and here’s what he wrote:
Competition aerobatics is all about precision and flying for the judges. Every maneuver is graded starting from 10.0 and the judges deduct from there, based on a set of criteria in the rule book. What's more important is what the judges see on the ground, vs what you see in the cockpit. You not only have to fly clean, you also need to manage the aircrafts energy throughout the flight while accounting for the environmental conditions to make sure you're actually flying in the right spot, because parallax and position, affect your scores. At the world level, one mistake can push your ranking right to the bottom that will automatically put you out of contention for a top 10 finish.

FLIGHT CHOPS DISCLAIMER:
I am a "weekend warrior" private pilot, I fly for fun with no intentions of going commercial. I have had my PPL for over 15 years, but still consider each flight a learning experience - I generally take detailed notes after each flight to remind myself what went well or what I could do to improve.... Having GoPro cameras to record flights like this is invaluable. I find these self analysis videos very helpful in my constant quest to improve, and am happy to share. Feedback is invited; however, please keep it positive.

Chops, I know I don't speak for all, but the honor is ours. Dude the passion you have for aviation in your videos is infectious. How you strike a balance not to make the topic about you but more informative, teaching moments and at the same time entertaining is a feat by itself. To you Sir, I bow down. To Ryan, am glad to see you back in the air, it's not easy. But I wish you quick recovery mentally and hope to see you in the competitions, Tails and Blues brother!

Thank you brother. This entire situation was all about quick decisions and sticking to them. The Suk is a horrible glider as I mention in the video. If we didn't get a lot of rain a few days prior, the airplane would be in one piece. Can't win them all! I appreciate everyones comments as I'm a big believer in sharing lessons in aviation. If we all share our experiences, we can all be better. It's that simple! While this emergency was as successful as it could be, there are definitely times where I second guess myself, and look back on how I would've done things different - Hindsight is 20/20 as they say. I've analyzed this video a lot, and have had many experienced pilots review and give me feedback and the response is there was nothing I could've done differently. While that makes me proud as a pilot, I still find myself wondering...that's just human nature I guess and as aviators, we're our biggest critics. During the emergency, I had one big moment about 20-30 seconds before impact, where I had processed that I would either end up in a wheelchair or dead...and I was content with that provided no one else got hurt. This was my problem, not theirs, and as pilots we have a significant responsibility to protect our passengers and those on the ground. In terms of the investigation, because this is not a certified aircraft and no one died, the TSB released the aircraft an hour after the accident. The lesson I learned in all of this, is that trained instincts matter. Aerobatic training saved my life in this situation because although I have less then 5 hours on type, I was able to draw on my aerobatic experience from flying many high-performance machines to "fly what I see", fly the wing and make judgement calls outside of what the book says. It was marginal, but it all worked out. Appreciate Flight Chops letting me tell my story, and I hope that this video saves someone else's life. Blue skies and Tailwinds and don't forget...Aviate, Navigate and Communicate! :) Ryan "Kaha" Chapman

Over 6000 hrs of tailwheel here, and he's absolutely correct. Tailwheel + soft field = bad day. I also found out the hard way that a Cessna 305A (L-19 Birddog) with one notch of flaps will not flair to a 3-point attitude with no engine thrust (engine quit). I was literally a lawn dart and slammed the nose into the ground.

@m18cropduster63 6 месяцев назад
It's pretty rought to land in a soft field with any kind of planes. I should say a tail dragger may land a bit better than a classic landing gear. Anyway, he did well. He landed at a slow airspeed as possible, straight wings. And the Sukhoi (SU-26 ?) he's a very strong airplane to do a perfect bad landing...Now he is an experienced pilot...😁

Ryan did an amazing job and I'm glad he made it out fairly unscathed. This really drove home to me that if you fly an aircraft with a retractable gear (which this Su-26 didn't have) you should definitely consider a gear up landing if you're forced to bring it down on soft ground.

It was about 3 days later I made a phone call to my mother (not married and no kids of my own) and it hit me that someone else could have been making a call to her a few days earlier. It's crazy what family does to you vs what you're ok with accepting solo. Much respect and, as you say, we must get back on that horse and keep moving forward.

There is a small part in this video that I think needs to be highlighted. Ryan's conscience decision to give up the idea of landing on a road due to the risk of injuring the vehicle occupants. Many many times you see videos on YT of other pilots electing to land on busy highways when clearly there are adjacent fields available yet those pilots put numerous lives at risk. Ryan's decision to avoid landing on a road demonstrates to me what airmanship is all about.

Had the same thing happen to me in ‘89 in an Acrosport 2. During a transit, so not wearing a helmet, and were non-radio too. I was in the front seat when the engine started spluttering, and then quit. I handed control to the owner in the rear and I reverted to my instructor role ‘mags off, fuel off’, just enough time to give the harness a quick tighten, and then it was into a field of barley. The barley caught the lower wing and flipped us immediately. The force collapsed the top wing (which probably saved my life, rather than me taking the impact). I had to have the tail lifted up for me before I could get out. Quite a feeling, trapped upside down looking at the roots of barley, and all you can hear is the ‘tink tink tink’ of hot metal cooling down, and knowing that the fuel tank is above/below your knees. A multitude of emergency vehicles appeared, and the policeman that took us to the farmhouse (the owner of the land we’d arrived on), asked us if we could do it again! He’d been the other side of the county when he got the call and had done 130mph+ to get to us - he hadn’t had as much ‘fun’ in years! Apparently the call had come through with no indication of aircraft size, so they were all expecting to find a Jumbo stoofed in - what they got was a pair of wheels just showing above the barley tops, and a pair of dazed pilots with just a few cuts and bruises (thankfully)! Anyway, glad to see this one have a happy ending too.

Way back in about 1965 I was in the Royal Australian Air Force as a firefighter. Two Winjeel trainers collided on short approach, one landed reasonably safely and ground looped the other was thrown inverted and landed that way. The pilot was quite badly injured and because the overturn bracket had broken off and the cockpit glazing had all gone in the impact the aircraft was on the ground at combing level. To rescue the pilot about 6 bods got their backs under the port wing and lifted while the doc got in and did his stuff then the pilot was pulled from the aircraft. The Pilot recovered and went on to be an ATC officer. here are details about the Winjeel en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAC_Winjeel

I just became a CFI which is a definite turning point in regard to the weight you feel carrying your student, and being in charge of their safety. I’ve been thinking a lot about what I would do based on where I am if an emergency happened. It’s definitely stressful stuff, and I really appreciate this shared experience of an emergency. I think he handled everything as perfectly as you could, and I can only pray that I won’t end up in the same situation, but that if I do, it gets handled as safely as this so everyone makes it out safe. Thank you for sharing this!

So pleased there was a good outcome in the end. So interesting to hear the decisions making in it, especially around the power lines, something we are constantly warned about as pilots. I wonder how much of a difference keeping the engine going made in his ability to clear them. That little bit of thrust probably ended up making a big difference in the options he had.

WOW! So glad it resulted in minor physical injuries. I hope the mental injuries are just as minor and quick to heal. The 4:1 glide ration is crazy. Almost as if the wings are only there as support structure for the control surfaces. Thanks for sharing the video so we can all learn from it. I'm looking forward to hearing what was going on with the engine. Scary stuff.

Quite. I had to take a stopwatch to it. The estimated time is about right. Not much time for anything other than thorough training to kick in.

Thanks for uploading this video! It is a textbook example how a pilot should react. It shows a highly skilled, highly trained pilot with the right mindset, a pilot who can do 100% under high stress, who is clearly able to assess the situation and make right choices. I'm sure there are people who will comment as ''Why he didn't do this?'' or ''He should have done that''. For those people: he needed two or three minutes to explain what happened, what he did and why he did in ten (10) seconds. Based on the information he had and his knowledge he did the best. I wish him all the best and hope he can make it to the WC! I also hope the plane is salvagable, these rare birds are awesome.

Peter Besenyei tipped over his Extra during an emergency landing on a soft field 14 years ago. It is almost impossible to keep a taildragger in line under these circumstances, the other problem is the wheels being too small to start rolling. Glad you survived! the tail , engine cowl and canopy did their job keeping you out of the mud.

Great video and awesome that Ryan survived this. Funnily enough I'm from New Zealand and I was looking at Ryan thinking he looks like he has Maori ancestory.....then saw the designs on the helemt and thought wait a minute.and then he confirmed it by saying he was from here originally. Kia ora Ryan!

Crashing is bad enough but flipping upside down and being trapped is a nightmare scenario. Thank God there wasn't a post-crash fire. Glad to see he was ok.
