IMPRESSIVE takeoff

[crab]

Airbus A319
1.54mb

Agree?

 

[gogeeta13]

nice

god, what a power house plane that must be!

 

[d33pt]

yeah i didnt know planes that big can do that

 

[LordMaul]

Sheeite.


I saw one with amazingly short takeoff distance at Oshkosh Airshow once. DAMN it was short! :Q

 

[Swanny]

Oh yes, planes that big can do that. When the 737 was introduced and being demoed to airline companies the test pilot did a barrel role in one.

But yes, that is quite impressive.


[Airline attendant voice] Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome aboard. Please keep your seatbelts buckled at all times and barf bags are conviently located on either side of your seat. Thank you and enjoy the flight. [/Airline attendant voice]

 

[Eli]

That was cool..

 

[Scootin159]

Yeah, supposedly those planes are actually quite manuverable. They had a nice deomonstration before they built Air Force 1 about that (the secret service isn't about to put the president in a plane that can't handle worth a dime).

 

[ddjkdg]

That was pretty nice, but could that part of the video have been time-accelerated? I don't think the passengers would have been very happy if it angled up 50 degrees all of a sudden.

707...I think his name was Jack Waddell....Did a barrel roll above the investors that financed it... Was Boeing's first jetliner.

 

[Imdmn04]

damn, had no idea commercial planes could do that :Q

 

[crab]

Guys, that was a test or training flight, and that plane had NO passengers, trust me.

 

[PsychoAndy]

i dunno.....it looks as if it could have been time compressed, i mean almost anything's possible with todays software

Don't know if this particular clip has been altered, but I know that it is possible for those planes to do that. Have you ever seen the blue angels? They have a plane that is like that (except I think it's a little bigger with actually less power), and they are able to do that live.

 

[novon]

I do barrel rolls and short landings with the 737 in FS2002 all the time, full realism.

 

[crab]

Time compression isn't going to change what was done....He climbed a few feet and leveled off, retracted the gear (so they, and the doors dont blow off), gained speed and yanked the stick.

the Airbusses are fly-by-wire....They don't even have traditional yokes, they have fighter-like sidesticks.

In an airbus you can yank that stick backwards and the FBW systems will NOT let you stall, hence cabability to do some amazing things.

I had a meeting down in New Orleans once and the guys I met with told me about a plane of that size that ended up doing an emergency landing on their property. Well, long story short, the thing was stuck on a small property with not a lot of space to take off and a bridge looming in the near-distance in the way of the takeoff path. They had people saying they'd have to disassemble the thing to get it out of there, but a couple hot-shot pilots came in and said they could do it. The took all of the seats out of the thing, and dropped the weight as much as possible, and the pilots ended up doing a takeoff similar to what's in this video ... missing the bridge, and getting the plane out of there.

Same here, but I don't always end up making it...

 

[narzy]

new boeing craft are FBW aswell, just not as noticable by the piolts, also the airbus is a dummy plane, even a dummy can fly it, unfortunatly, thats also one of its weeknesses, since it "WON'T" let you stall, or make "dangerous" manuvers, it can actually end up costing lives, a well trained piolt beats and onboard computer any day. there have been mid air and even on ground collisions due to the airbusses habbit of not allowing certain maunvors.

that plane was most likely empty when it did that, BTW so no passangers would object . im betting it was a demo, or a damn stupid pilot .

 

[Kadarin]

That was very impressive! Thanks for the link....

 

[Heisenberg]

That's pretty cool. Not as cool as the shots of the F-15 standing on its tail and accelerating upward, but for a plane that big it is impressive.

Correct about FBW....Boeings do have FBW, what I meant was Boeings don't have the envelope protection...
Remember the A320 plowing through the woods at an airshow? AFAIK it was from the pilots not understanding the autoflight systems.

You FLY a Boeing, you babysit an Airbus...which is why Boeing is my personal preference.

That happened in India. A Boeing 747 landed on a IAF Runway.. they missed the Intl. airport runway and landed at the airbase.

[LongCoolMother]

looks like what i do in flight sim 2000

 

[dude8604]

<< That was cool.. >>



yeah...I was watching the video, wondering what was going to happen, and then the plane went up...I wasn't expecting that.:Q

If any of you FS pilots want to try multiplayer, LMK.
