what this pilot does when the engine quits.>>
Yes John,
I noticed that. He was not far above the tree tops but it looked as though
there was just about enough room to dive left to the road.
Shows the downside of openair flying. No fuselage to protect you.
He was really unlucky to collect all those imjuries though.
Cheers

Hey Ray / Guys,
How was a BRS gonna save his bacon......Maybe TANGLE in the trees
???? It looked TOO LOW
to do the job.... He needed a rocket assist Ejection seat.........I wonder how
much weight that would add to my plane.
Gotta Fly...

Some things to be learned here --
1 NO shoulder belts!
2 It would have been so easy to stay over the nearby road, 'just in
case'.
Don't they teach this any more?

BRS would not of fully deployed to make any difference. I would guess he was
under 500 ft. He forgot to fly the plane. That was his only option. I do
like to thoughts about shoulder harness and full fuselage though.

Great video Barry. Four seconds from engine stoppage
to impact. The FAA says it takes a pilot about five
seconds after an engine failure to realize what has
happened. Only then can the pilot begin to perform
the emergency procedures.

The BRS may not have fully deployed in this case, however ther are 28
documented cases where pilots have been saved by a BRS at 100 ft. or less,
the lowest being only 25 ft. and all of them faired better than this poor
guy. See: http://www.brsparachutes.com/PI_saves.mgi
for complete list.

When I saw the video & watched him fly so low over congested & populated
area I said to myself, this guy is trouble waiting to happen. We all have
seen many fellow pilots fly like their plane is never going to have a
problem. I personally refuse to fly into a strip that requires me to fly
low, over houses or even trees, on take off. If there is not a place to
abort at every moment up to the point I have enough altitude to do a 180
return, then I refuse to operate out of that field. -Richard Swiderski

I dunno........?? I've got a few hours in a Quicksilver 2 seater, and it
was tough to get used to[Richard Swiderski] landing procedure. Coming in
on final at 300 ft,
the instructor told me (and showed me) to wait till the numbers were between
my feet, chop the throttle, point the nose down and keep the Hall airspeed
indicator at 45 mph (if I remember right) and flare at the very last second.
It was a little (??) hair raising at 1st, and we came down very
steeply.......I'd guess at a 45 deg angle, and we'd touch down not much past
the numbers. Not much of a glide ratio there.
I think you and John are right, tho'. Looks like he forgot to fly the
plane, for all the time he had TO fly it.

Mike,
Records show ultralight saves with a BRS as low as 25 ft. The video shows more
than ample altitude for a complete deployment. In most properly placed chutes,
the rocket deploys upward, with instant stoppage of downward travel. Whether
over bare land or trees, it's better to descent vertically than fly head on into
anything, without a lot of strong fuselage in front.

Hey Ray / Guys,
How was a BRS gonna save his bacon......Maybe TANGLE in the trees ???? It looked
TOO LOW
to do the job.... He needed a rocket assist Ejection seat.........I wonder how
much weight that would add to my plane.
Gotta Fly...

Hey Rick,
I live in jackson,MS and i have to drive north 120
miles to buy me a drum of gas.Problem is diesel fuel
is easily avaliable while gasoline is not.It's a mess
but now with power going back up to the gas stations i
think it would be much easier...

Guys, I agree with your comments, but as I watched this video I could hear engine
hesitation starting at a point where he could have easily turned to his left
and put it down on a couple of gravel roads running off to his left if he was
paying attention to the engine sound. If I hear anything unusual in the sound
of my engine, which has only happened once, I'm immediately looking for a place
to park it in case it quits, but this guy seemed to be oblivious to what
was happening until it quit and then he was clueless what to do, but by then he
was over too many trees to do anything about it most likely. Banking hard left
at that point would have caused him to loose altitude even quicker. Usually
2 cycles will give you a few seconds of warning with a hesitation, especially
if it is fuel related, which this looked and sounded like to me, based on the
couple engine hesitations I heard in the engine sound on the video.
Really unfortunate, but as you said, a good piece of teaching video. As was also
eluded to, if I were flying regularly from that strip, I would have made a
habit of doing a left turn over those roads short of the woods, just in case of
an engine out during climbout. As was noted, altitude is our friend and paying
attention is also our friend. Flying over friendly terrain that gives you
options until you get high enough to have more options is a smart way to fly
with 2 cycles in my opinion.
Regarding the BRS notion, I think he was hitting tree tops so quick after the engine
quit, plus his panic reaction to the engine out, freezing his reactions,
he probably would not have had time to pull the BRS lever in time to help much.
If he could have pulled it, it would likely gotten tangled in the trees and
at least kept him from hitting the ground so hard, but none of that should have
had to happen in this case in my opinion if he were paying attention to how
his engine was sounding and if he flew a smart departure pattern with a left
turn before the woods until he got high. These are both good lessons learned
from this video in my opinion.
I'm fortunate to live in the desert so there aren't any wooded areas like that,
but there is plenty of cactus to make for an unpleasant landing....
Fly smart by listening closely to your engine sound and make sure you have options
during climbout, either one, would have saved this guy a lot of pain and suffering.
My 2 cents worth only.

Take particular note what this pilot does when the engine quits. He
has just passed over a long straight dirt/gravel road. Instead of
banking left and pushing the stick forward, he immediately tries to
make the UL levitate by pulling all the way back on the control stick.
No wonder it went down so fast. He stalled the aircraft before it
went into the trees.
I may be speaking out of turn as I have zero experience in any other
UL except Kolbs and Burt Howland's Honeybee.

Unfortunately we do not always do the same thing everytime. How many time
have we done something "just this once" or said "I don't usually do it this
way"? Maybe it was a test flight or demo flight? We can analyze this all
day. That part does not matter. What really matters was full up elevator
with no power and a missed safe landing opprotunity. All this looked like it
followed a sudden inflex of fear and panic. (Notice his left handed grip on
the bar beside him?) I have done construction for years and one thing I know
very well from missed and poorly set ladders and scaffles..... GRAVITY
SUCKS!!
Kinda works that way with aircraft too.
Would'a, could'a, should'a, didn't.

Pilots crash airplanes. Pilot error stuff. Other that poorly installed wings

Pat
I must be looking at a different BRS site -- I see 177 'saves' but only
3-4 are Kolbs. No pix. With my confuser skills I prolly just missed it.
Is this www.BRSparachute.com?
The chute would have helped almost no matter how late deployed. Would
stop FORWARD motion even if not time to stop downwards much. And
tangling in treetops would help too, even un-deployed. But this is one
poorly trained pilot!! -- he did most everything wrong. But lived, at
least.
I heard of a Navy pilot who had a main gear collapse during the
catapult launch on a carrier -- (how's that for an attention-getter???)
and was quick enough to pull the ejection handle so he was shot out of
the aircraft horizontally -- went into the water about 50 yd from the
side of the carrier & was promptly fished out. Then loudly demanded
another airplane because the first one quit on him !!
Quite an excellent performance -- he had only 1 second or so to pull
the magic handle. Now, that's a pilot --
Hope you can straighten out the W&B problems with your bird -- I'm sure
you know NEVER to take off with any kind of aft CG -- Egad, man but
you've been thru the wringer on this one; certainly hope you get
everything righted soon . Also was disappointed to read the account of
the UK importer being so stinky. No one needs that.
May the world treat you well, and often --

Gots bad news for ya, Mike. Ya better hustle. I fired Vamoose up Saturday,
and pinpointed the oil leak - again. Just now finished removing the
redrive, and will put a new seal in it tomorrow. I'm also going to lower
the oil pressure to stock settings, tho' it wasn't a factor originally.
(the original input shaft didn't leak. It was only after it broke, and I
upgraded to the heavier shaft that all this started) Then, upgrade my
wiring diagram and call the inspector. Wish it'd cool off here, tho'. 45
minutes out there, and I'm soaked and under cover in the house.

about 5 years ago,,was getting ready to do the first flight in my

made two rounds and was on a downwind" did not touch anything"and it just
quit,pushed forward stick lots of it!!!,and landed about 30 feet from the
edge of the runway,,we pushed it to the hanger ,,and after talking bout it
pulled it through and it started right up. any way the moral of this is be

Mike I'm curious? Why are you doing all of the to fly a Firestar?? I'm not
so sure it is all necessary.
Chuck
What's not to understand..... It's an Experimental Firestar II , not an ultralight....
( N381PM )
I need a current Pilot Cert and Medical
and I need insurance.............insurance wants : Tailwheel endoresment , an
EAA Flight Advisor and 5 hrs in a "like"
Aircraft.....
The Transponder is just so I can fly from a local field , I'm sitting under a
dam class B wedding cake...
with a transponder on my plane the FAA guy approved me to fly my "40" from under
the class B ring , a two mile
wide corridor North..... to my practice area which is out of the Mode C ring
That will only help me save GAS driving that far......already my transponder will
be paying for it's self....
Anybody else see that I'm doing TOO MUCH to get this thing in the air?......I'm
just trying to be LEGAL
I hear about plenty of people flying FAT UL's and getting away with it......I
don't want to be checking my 6 always.
And when my 40 hrs are flown of I'll be adding a ELT ( 2 seater )
Gotta Fly...

Will somebody please post the video again? Also when and where did this
happen? My daughter said there was an ultralight crash in Michigan recently.
Thanks

Point well taken !! Thanks Jim. I'm still learning too.
--> Kolb-List message posted by: "JIM HEFNER" <hefner_jim@msn.com>
Chuck, that's what lessons learned are all about. I guess everyone can
choose to learn from this unfortunate situation or not. Avoiding this
potential situation is the approach I prefer and have reconfirmed from this
situation... others may prefer pulling their BRS at the last second.
Looking at that video a few times, I think if he hadn't pulled full up
elevator when the engine quit, he was most likely still going down into the
trees unless Quicksilvers glide a whole lot better than I think they do with
no power... a pretty high drag plane... maybe he would have been luckier
with how he went down through the trees, but either way it was going to be
much worse than keeping a landing option open, which is part of basic pilot
training.
You are right about GRAVITY, so making smart choices consistently can payoff
big when you least expect it.

Unfortunately we do not always do the same thing everytime. How many time
have we done something "just this once" or said "I don't usually do it this
way"? Maybe it was a test flight or demo flight? We can analyze this all
day. That part does not matter. What really matters was full up elevator
with no power and a missed safe landing opprotunity. All this looked like it
followed a sudden inflex of fear and panic. (Notice his left handed grip on
the bar beside him?) I have done construction for years and one thing I know
very well from missed and poorly set ladders and scaffles..... GRAVITY
SUCKS!!
Kinda works that way with aircraft too.
Would'a, could'a, should'a, didn't.
I have enough trouble convincing my girlfriend that airplanes don't crash.
Pilots crash airplanes. Pilot error stuff. Other that poorly installed wings
and stuff which in our case the pilot probably did anyhow.

Mike you can fly it on a BFI. and with no controls in the back, you may not
need that. That is why I am also trying to get a 2 seater. Light Sport. You
do not need a certified pilots license from what I understand. That is the
beauty of Kitplanes. Maybe the guys at Kolb or youir local Sportplane club
can help you understand the difference.

Mike;
I don't think your doing too much as I am doing the same thing on my
"Experimental Extra". VHF,Xponder,ELT, and a VFR panel. Flying here in Delaware
I
have BWI ,DC,Philly, Dover AFB ,McGuire AFB and others very close by. So to go
anywhere I am flirting with controlled airspace.

Not everybody is totally enamored of Light Sport or heavy Ultralight.
Some of us like Experimental, with all the privileges and responsibilities
it entails.
Therefore, we do whatever is necessary, and we fly when and where we please.
Day, night, VFR, IFR, xponder, whatever it takes to do what we want.
Maybe next year my blood pressure will be too high, and I will skip my
physical,
fall back to Light Sport, and be glad it's there.
But for right now, all the bells and whistles and hoop-jumping-through
works for me.
And apparently for Rusty too.

Hi Chuck,
Well, I still like to fly Cessna 172 , and I'd like to rent the
PA- 12 that I trained in......
I'm not ready to just give up my "Private" to drop down to "sport"
I'll keep the option in mind if I think I'll ever have a problem passing a Medical.....
Heavy Ultralight ??? might as well just fly a J-3 illegaly , do you skip insurance
too ? might as well because when
they find out "Fraud" they don't pay anyway...
I don't know what angle your looking at this from.....I'm a Pilot that is trying
to get an aircraft in the air for some
CHEAP Flying........Not an Ultralight , I'm heavier ( by FAR ) than 254 lbs , It's
Faster than 63 , I have more than
5 gals of fuel on board , a passenger seat, Elec Start... and to fly as a BFI
you always need some excuse, alone or
with a passenger.... check yer 6...

Subject: | FireFly Getting Around |
--> Kolb-List message posted by: "Jack B. Hart" <jbhart@onlyinternet.net>
FireFlyers & Kolbers,
I had a fun weekend flying two almost one hundred mile triangular loops from
I22.
Saturday, I flew from Randolph Co 20.5 miles to Reese Field, a little
private strip a little south and east of Muncie. Then 17.6 miles to
Alexandria, Indiana to see my old sailplane buddies. Next 29.4 miles to
Henry Co Airport located next to New Castle, Indiana and where I filled up
with 100 LL and then 29.2 miles back to Randolph Co. Randolph Co. Total
straight line point to point trip distance was 96.7 miles.
Sunday, I flew from Randolph Co 34 miles to Connersville, Indiana and then
south another 9 miles to a grass strip that is inhabited by lots of ultra
lights called Nulltown Wingnuts on the chart. They have a fly-in breakfast
every first Sunday of the month. I got started much too late and so there
was no one there when I flew over so I turned and flew 21 miles to Richmond,
Indiana. As I approached there was lots of radio traffic and I discovered
they were having a huge parachuting fest. Filled up here with 100 LL. It
was interesting that their computer system could not handle filling up an
ultra light vehicle. They insisted on a tail number, so I suggested that
they use 103-7. But they used the word "can". It seems the system would
accept selling gas if it was put into a gas can. Then finally I flew my
ultra light vehicle gas can 28.6 miles to my home airport. Total straight
line point to point trip distance was 92.4 miles.
Average ground speed for the two trips was 46.0 and 46.6 mph point to point
with no allowances for deviation around inhabited areas and patterns. Fuel
flow was 2.38 and 2.31 gph. Burnt 5.0 and 4.59 gallons of gas. Total time
in the air was four hours, five minutes.
Today I rode the mower for five hours.
