Cirrus Aircraft Parachute Deployment Caught On Security Camera
Incredible video. It's the 63rd successful CAPS deployment, with 127 survivors to date. (www.boldmethod.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Takeoff and landing crashes plus 1 again. Hope it wasn't fuel starvation. If the Cirrus is having a lot of mishaps and the plane is fast with long glide ratio possibly some of the pilots need to be educated on proper engine management to stay away from carb ice. In reciprocating engines long periods of idling on approach is the wrong answer.
As has often been said, "For a Pilot, an Emergency Situation is any situation that the pilot is not prepared to handle." That said, I don't believe that I would ever fly with this guy.
There seem to be a lot of those. Am I right? Am I right?
Is there any insurance that covers the total loss in these situations?
Or is it 330K gone bye bye
Does the pilot relinquish control when the chute is deployed? In the video they almost hit a building. Did the pilot aim for that spot or was it by pure chance?
