This is the STOL Short take off and landing competition held in Valdez, Alaska, which is a competition to show case, pilots & planes, flying at their peak performance.
The purpose of the contest, is to take off & land a plane, in the shortest possible distance.
In 2017, Frank Napp set a new world record, for both takeoff and landing, in a highly modified 1939 Little Piper Cub.
In 2018, of Dan Reynolds set a new world record landing in 9 Feet 5 Inches, a whole foot shorter than Frank Napp.
Thanks for watching.

★★★ *FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE VIDEO / FACT UPDATES* ★★★ *1) People are saying they have seen shorter landings and even linking videos to these landings* - To be considered a world record, it needs to be done under the rules and observation of an official that can judge it, such as these planes on the day of this competition. Just because you landed a plane on a runway in a shorter distance once when no one was paying attention, it does not count. *2) The planes landed in like just a few feet, not 9 feet, how are they measuring these landings?* - Here are some STOL competition rules I found. *MEASURING TAKEOFFS* - Take-off distance will be measured to where the furthest main wheel leaves the ground for the last time. *MEASURING LANDINGS* - Landing distance will be measured from the reference line to the main gear. Here is the Valdez Fly-In and Air Show STOL Rules PDF Link - www.valdezflyin.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/2018-Valdez-Fly-In-Rules.pdf

@Acrid93 5 лет назад

@@accursedcursive4935 The issue with world records is precisely this. Unless every world record attempt is held at exactly the same conditions, you cannot compare those attempts to one another. In this case, they 'validate' the world record by ensuring that each pilot has always faced the same conditions. Other pilots may have landed in shorter distances, but they may end doing far worse in Valdez.

The wind speeds must’ve help definitely. The area of the wings (underneath) is pretty big, and the plane is light too! Maybe the lift wasn’t THAT much, but the weight of the plane, and the speeds of the wind, did help. One lowers the lift necessary, the other helps generate it!

Great video! For those curious about the vehicle featured at 2:17, it's the Wigetworks Airfish 8, a ground-effect vehicle (GEV) that utilizes ground effect over water to operate at extremely low altitudes. The craft takes off and lands like a seaplane, but typically never climbs higher than the upper extent of ground effect (many are unable to, but certain classifications of GEV are able and permitted to climb higher for limited periods of time.) Since they fly so low, they operate according to maritime rules and regulations, but they're a much quicker and smoother journey than one on a ship, not experiencing drag from the water or the rocking of waves. The drawback is that, like seaplanes, rough waters make for uncomfortable (and even dangerous) take offs and landings, and if the seas are too rough they can't operate safely at all.

@Dr.TJ_Eckleburg 5 лет назад

It really isn't -- at least not in the way we tend to think of precision in things like landing on a carrier or complex aerobatics. The aircraft really does most of the work here. Mind you, this stuff is extremely impressive, but it's more about setting up the aircraft in such a way that these extreme STOL maneuvers are possible. Big wings, vortex generators, good power, and as absolutely lightweight as possible. Once these things are properly set up, piloting them is actually incredibly easy. But getting them dialed in this way takes a ton of skill and dedication. I've been flying small planes for about 20 years now and I've done a few hours in a STOL configured aircraft, and it's just about the most fun I've ever had in a plane.

Actually, probably not very many. Pops are driven by the crankshaft, and with no clutch that means that any prop strike requires that you completely take apart the engine and check for damage. Prop strikes very often result in engine replacement, and that's only if the plane strikes the prop and then rocks back without causing any other damage. These guys really don't want to risk that.

@ferrumignis 5 лет назад

Absolutely incredible, I wouldn't have believed that was possible 👍👍. The take offs in particular are jaw dropping, but I guess the headwind really helps.

@rom20mk7 Год назад

Yes, I would like to know the wind speed

@fotogfitzfoto412 Год назад

I remember a STOL competition at the Farnborough International Air Show many moons ago. A variety of aircraft put on their show, and the announcer was about to announce the winner when he interrupted himself with news of a late entrant. A modified Harrier arrived over the runway and proceeded to land backwards with no roll, and take off backwards too. Unbeatable! 😂

I have been to Valdez and I can honestly say...it is such an amazing place. Genuinely one of the most breathtaking places I've ever been. Imagine an Alaskan version of Mayberry and the bald eagles fly around like nothing. Also fish literally jumping from the water. Crystal clear blue water. Nice people. Genuine Alaska.

@Thunder_Yoda 3 года назад

I was at an air show once in Bavaria where they had a bush plane fly backwards. It worked because he had a good breeze to work with. I was 9 or ten years old. The coolest thing ever.

@shootmkillerxd8101 4 года назад

Technically possible to land in reverse if there’s enough wind

4 года назад

But it won't be shorter than the length of the plane, a distance doesn't care from where you measure it, it will always grow

@shootmkillerxd8101 4 года назад

Vision_Slayer_525 yes but it’s vector is in the opposite direction compared to a regular landing

Very cool competition. Of course, I've seen, and there are videos of J3s hovering to land, and taking off as soon as they were untied, like a helicopter. I've even seen a J3 land while moving backwards, with the pilot having to push the throttles up just to not take back off. I'd love to see wind conditions like that at the next competition!

@JxH 3 года назад

While you're talking about Ground Effect and having the wing closer to the ground, I can't help but notice the high mounted wings. Mount the wing lower for greater Ground Effect. Also, are they allowed to have pre-compressed springs in the landing gear, when triggered to cause the aircraft to bounce vertically straight up (then gun it) ?

@Midwest4x4f150 5 лет назад

Almost had that feeling yesterday. And I’m just learning to fly as well. Had a 15MPH headwind at Savannah airport. I was in a 150L. Put in 20 degrees of flaps and you can really slow down and take your landing step by step. Good way to learn. I was doing touch n go’s and reached 500’ on the go before I made it to the end of the runway. Fully loaded. With me and the instructor and fill tanks there’s only 25# to spare.

@2020HotShotTruckingLLC Год назад

I'm not a real pilot, I just play one on my PC. The great thing about flight simulator is being able to set the wind speed and direction. And if you also have aircraft designer you can land on the aircraft carrier if you increase the drag effect of the landing gear so it stops you as if you caught the wire. Most people never get the chance to experience this in real life, so thank you for sharing this with us!
