Another weird YouTube plane video

Too bad about the comments, but, this is an interesting video. Pretty
resilient airplane.

Oh man, you're right about the comments - what a prick!

Second one I assume was supposed to be an emergency landing; but, if it was
an impromptu landing strip, why did what appears to be an improvised wind
sock appear at the 48 second mark? But, a good landing, never the
less........

I bet they just use that part of the road to land their plane when
they want to go fishing, or there's a house nearby, something they do
pretty regular -- regular enough to put up a wind sock.

Long as you can tell if any cars are coming ... *if* ...

That's not an emergency landing.

Skip to about 4 minutes in.

That "plane" is a Sabre trike, it stalls in the low 20s IIRC. Try
that same spot in a spam can and he wouldn't have lived to tell his
tale.

Where did you see that? Don't think the video showed or mentioned the
aircraft, the closest we got was a shadow of it, and it looked more a
3 axis machine to me, MX or something like it.

I watched the author's videos and read most of the comments and also I
too have a trike and I can see the pentulum effect half way thru his
video. I also happen to know that he is an ultralight pilot and that
he has a Sabre trike. He doesn't have a PPL.

I'll believe you, but the shadow of the aircraft on the film looks
distinctly like a square wing to me, which is why I thought 1st gen 3
axis ultralight like an [Quicksilver] MX. Must have been an optical
illusion I guess.

End of the day, doesn't matter and I don't even know why I'm debating
the point, it was obviously a fully open ultralight aircraft of some
description, and even that doesn't matter, because it's an aircraft
making an emergency landing which is exactly what I posted the video
as an example of.

He doesn't have a PPL.

I didn't suggest he did. Neither do I.

Nice one. I wish the video would have shown the damage to the airplane.
