@lukearts2954 Месяц назад

@@ashhawk2346 while they didn't show it, I'm pretty sure he failed that part but they let him continue just to see if it would get dramatically better. I'm this sure because I've seen similar reactions to full face diving masks in training situations, where the candidate was asked to leave the course because if the unexpected element already triggered panic in a training situation, any unexpected hick-up in the real world will definitely do so too. People who do well in such special suits, have the time of their lives in them. "If you don't feel the rush of joy, it's not for you" is what the instructor told the guy that had to leave. And I agree. I don't know what it is exactly, but using breathing apparatus just gives me a boost.

As an ex-gliding instructor, I love the fact that such a multi-million dollar machine has a Yaw-String stuck to each canopy. We also have to note that, while Adam’s flight was to 70,000 feet, the Perlan 2 has flown to more than 76,000 feet - with two crew in pressure suits, in its pressurised cockpit - but with NO ENGINE. Yes, Perlan 2 is a GLIDER…!

@bescotdude9121 2 месяца назад

so for an unpowered glider to get to an altitude that is higher than the official max attitude of the u2 means that the u2 can almost certainly go higher than the official max altitude of 73,000 feet

I remember this from the original airing, and it still gets me in the feels. I think the myth that Adam and Jamie didn't like each other was busted in this episode, if Jamie didn't like Adam he would have taken the flight knowing how much Adam would have wanted it. What Jamie did was an act of pure affection and respect for Adam. They both had an equal shot at going up in the U2, yet Jamie gave it to Adam in full knowledge that he will most likely never get an opportunity to do anything remotely like this ever again.

@paulmakinson1965 2 месяца назад

I had the same impression flying an old Astir CS glider. Like most gliders, one central wheel to balance on and a skate at the back, high aspect ratio wings, a lot of ground effect, the yaw indicator string taped onto the canopy of course, and most importantly, can't see the darn runway because she lands with plenty of AOA and that big old compass is sitting on the dash blocking the view. The U2 was hard to fly in its original version. It has huge control surfaces meant for the thin air at high altitude. That means that at lower altitudes, with more dynamic pressure on the control surfaces and no power assist, it required a bodybuilder to move the controls. Modernized controls solved this issue. The U2 flies so high it is close to the coffins corner, that is when the stall speed (Vs) is near the not exceed speed (Vne), often within 10 knots of each other, requiring constant corrections on the throttle under penalty of death. The modernised U2 has autothrottle, taking a lot of the workload off the pilot. She is still a b***h to land having to stall about max 2ft off the ground. The landing gear of a U2 cannot take more punishment than that (contrary to a glider). Every possible gram has been shaved off.

@tonybarry5101 2 месяца назад

Glad to read someone talking about the coffin corner. The pilot is balancing the aircraft all the time, no let up, right on the edge of an aerodynamic stall at 70,000 feet. The plane is within 10 knots of "never exceed" speed. But if it goes any slower, the wing will lose lift and stall, because the air is so thin. He has just a few knots of airspeed to play with. And he juggles that for hours at a time, with no mistakes. Serious levels of skill and practice.

@thoughtful_criticiser 2 месяца назад

The U2s used to fly from RAF/USAF Alconbury. We had a great working relationship with the base and had their paramedics ride with me and in return I would go and work there. One of the pilots I was talking to was referring to the suit and kit they had, as well as a medical before each flight. Then he said he was at 60,000ft all dressed up for the aircraft, he looked out and saw Concorde approaching. He looked through his binoculars and he could see people in regular clothing sipping champagne and eating then just like that Concorde was gone. Each morning the sound of the U2 woke us up as it rocketed nearly vertically.

Super jealous of the U-2 flight, Adam, you lucky fellow... (happy for you tho) Jamie, you are a true gentleman Love the irony in a plane that sees so much landing blind

Going on a flight like that or, even better, being able to behold the entirety of planet Earth from an Apollo mission would just about be the most cathartic and profound experience imaginable. One incredibly difficult element to flying the U-2 they didn't mention: once you get all the way up to those high altitudes, there is so little atmosphere that the plane's never-exceed speed and stall speed are only ~10 knots apart. That's a very narrow tightrope to walk on top of everything else that needs your attention.

I know it was for entertainment but he doesn't realise the amount of damage that initial statement has done for the RC community!! Was this episode sponsored by the FAA? Absolutely no deaths have been recorded from recreational RC use!!
