Ben Longden Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Did'nt someone once say that if it takes full power to taxi, then the gears up? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVPsYUky2l8&feature=related
Guest palexxxx Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Why is this called "Mig 29 Belly Take-off" when it's obviously footage of a wheels up landing???
Guest ozzie Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 if this was a landing then i have been doing it ass up for thirty years or so
Guest palexxxx Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Please accept my humblest apologies...... I missed the start of the video when the gear collapsed.......I thought with the speed that it was travelling down the runway that it must have been a landing. I am not worthy ..........
philipnz Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 I don't think the gear "collapsed". Looks to me like he thought he was off the ground and retracted them, then found out he wasn't. Maybe he retracted flaps at the same time and got a little sink (do they takeoff with flaps?)
Ben Longden Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 Its one hell of a way to get a promotion to 'flying' a desk at a small air force base in Siberia.... Ben
