Bankstown crash
 

Just saw on the news where a C152 (HCE) crashed shortly after takeoff from Bankstown. Plane is upside down in a nearby paddock. Both pilot & passenger unharmed.

The flying phone box bites the dust

It'll be back again. I've seen HCE in worse conditions. That thing has crashed more times than the $US.

It landed upside down apparently, very impressive! :eek:

Yep - it is possible to do a wheels up landing in a fixed gear aircraft! :)
Media said a while ago that although the firies attended there was no fire & no fuel spill. Sounds a bit strange, doesn't it?!

DF.

Hmmm, well at least it isn't mine. :E

Ahh so, confucious say pilot who fly plane upside down likely to have big ...... up!

Sounds strange??? No not really. It is quite believable! :E

Any comment.? no not at the moment.:ugh:
Are you the pilot, yes yes.:{
Were you scared, no not really scared. !!!
MMMM shutup now. !:E

Reporter.
After a flippin fall out of the air.? :sad:
The Kill Bankstown Airport Eagles are circling.:eek:

Poetic liceince pending.

shocked was I , to learn of the operator.

:E

No fuel spill? Good demonstration of airmanship there, using the forward fuel dump system of the C152 before impact. Has prevented many a post-impact fire.

And a great display of English skills.
Guess that exam really didn,t work.:E

Clearly! (my bolding) ;)

Another lucky escape for the management who cant be bothered to organise a an airport (volunteer) fire service.

Bet he still got hit with the YSBK landing fee ;-)

Along with the parking charge, garden replenishment fee, fire attendance fee & ATC undies laundering surcharge.

Condolences to the family.... R.I.P

oh wait a minute .........

18 posts and it has not been said........ That will buff out :}

Just need to paint the underbody duck egg blue to match the camo upper.....might a damm sight easier to do it right now actually.

:rolleyes:

There was absolutely nothing wrong with his English.....

Yeah such a stupid childish comment ^^ wake up mate

Oooooo nooo.....flown in HCE loooonnggggg time ago~~~

hey guys, LiveATC got the audio: LiveATC.Net ATC Audio Archives:E

Nice clear mayday call. Not sure how rushed they were but the call they gave did the job nicely. :ok:

What surprise me though, is that the pilot actually requested for a "glide approach" and was approved by the ATC. It was then followed by a mayday stating "engine failure":confused:

^ circuit training, conducted glide approach then a touch and go, failure on upwind. :ugh:

HH old son . . . will you proof my MS . . .
. .. only 200,000 words . . . please?

NCD = good outcome

Carby Ice?

Too much air in the tanks?

Sidesliped the fuel away from the pickup?

BUGGER :\

Was referring to his media comments, bit quick to put the knife in. !

whatever mate, no balls to stand by what you said?:E

Sorry my attention span is limited to single sentences...;)

I thought the news footage bit was for the local 7-11 shop or a new curry place opening up near YSBK.

^ Oh for cryin out loud. Grow up !

It stalled, I'm sure of it. Where's Planky when you need him?

j3pipercub, I thought you quit PPRuNe?

Welcome back J3.

We missed you (a bit).

Like the hotel California, you can log out any time you like, but you can never quit PPruNe:cool:

Well said spyderpig

Seriously,
I thought his english was quite fine, certainly better than many. I was impressed that he did refrain from trying to sell the reporter a new phone deal :ok:
