Those are huge caution cones!

I can't remember, was green up or blue up?

 

[Cigalert]

I hope they had time to bail out.

Seeing as I build airplanes for a living, I'm pretty sure we did not design it to do that.

Hey! I did the same thing 2 days ago.

 

[DaveC]

wait. You need to clarify your post. Did you drop the plane or some ordinance?? . BNAG

I had to do a "emergency landing"

Our UAV's engine loss power and she started to roll right so I did everything I could to keep here away from a road the Iraqi's use. I belly landed the bird about 50 yards inside our compound. We had way more damage than that though.

Last one I crashed was a scale Phantom.....lol...and you think boats are expensive...

 

[ONE-A-DAY]

Looks like the crew got out before the impact, thank god for that.

 

[DaveC]

Sounds expensive. So do those things really have jet engines?

There is field we use by my house to ride 50's and BMX bikes for the kids. On Saturdays they fly planes out there. They look bad-ass!... :thumbsup

Look at the bright side, at least you didn't have to pay as much as Byron did on your "emergency landing"

You get to have all the fun. If it wasn't for all the sand, relentless heat, and towel-heads shooting at you I would say your job kicks ass

A few years back a friend of mine got into model planes, found some old guys to talk to, built a trainer, then an intermediate stunt plane, was going out most saturdays and having a ball.

He mentioned it to a mutual friend, who said he was into planes also and had built a really complicated jet looking plane. My bud knew the plane was pretty advanced and recommended that maybe the old guys should help him the first go round since he'd never flown a plane before.

They bring there planes to the field and unload, meet the old guys who look over the plane. First thing the old guy says was, "this ain't gonna work! You have this wrong, how'd you put this together, this isn't flat..." The guy who built the plane said it would be fine, just help me with the take off and landing.

They fuel it up, fire it, and taxi down the field. They give it a little throttle and it goes down the field, goes straight up, and then straight back down and buries itself. The owner is in shock...the old guy walks up and hands him his controller..."told ya"...
