If you want to be considered a legit channel, stop with the click bait titles and cover photos.

The people in the comments section have never been there. They don’t know what they don’t know. I felt the pit in my stomach and hairs on my back watching this video. Glad you made it. Nice thing about the Ercoupe is you can’t stall or spin it so you’d likely survive the crash.

It’s a heart warming thought that’s for sure 😂

I think I missed the "almost crash".

Hmm, Ercoupe is 2 place side by side so assuming here a passenger was doing the videoing. So with full fuel, 2 bodies on board a full fuel and high density altitude on a summer day and yes I would vote for close call. The first clue he was in trouble was when I noticed I had drank most of a cup coffee in the time it took him to get off the groung let alone clear anything. Used to fly my 65hp Champ here in Central Idaho's Backcountry.. I can relate........

Aircraft barely clears the tree line. Low rate of climb, high density altitude, maybe. I’m not familiar with this airport. I’d say it’s almost a crash. Be careful out there.

Sounds like all these experts have never experienced High, Hot and Heavy or 85hp Ercoupe . You flew your plane all the way and never made things worse by using more elevator. You probably know your plane better than those expert commenters. Hope your still flying'

Yeah that would frighten me. In fact just the video did frighten me.

High density altitude?

Yes and weird winds that day

no almost crash, clickbait photo, silly

Ok, blocking this channel.

Every one of my A-65 powered Luscombe take-offs in Idaho is almost an accident. Yep, all 2,000 of 'em.

Defiantly can make for some pucker factor take offs! Thanks for Watching

It was Close!

One of the easiest aircraft to fly ever built, unless you strap a coupe of deer carcasses to the fuselage.

Every takeoff in an Ercoupe is an almost crash

That is complete nonsense. My first airplane was an Ercoupe that I bought for $900 and flew for years. It did well for its horsepower, and I put a lot of hours on it. How many hours do you have in the type?

Yikes!

Brake on full throttle yoke all the way back in your lap and go for take off.

I try to keep the gravel out of the prop but could have helped on this one. Thanks for Watching

Flying in the Mountains in an underpowered aircraft is kind of a DUMB thing to do! The Ercoupe struggles at sea level, who's the Brainiack who thought flying in the mountains would be cool?

It is!

I think 'amost crashes' was putting it a bit strong, sure the climbout was a bit shallow (possibly because of the thin mountain air) but no real danger.

Has it occurred to any of the "experts" here that he did not attempt a steeper and more appropriate climb?

I guess I missed the almost crash part…🤷🤷🤷

Nice clickbait.

As an Ercoupe owner and admin of a major Ercoupe Facebook group, I find this video sad and shameful clickbait. You can do better than this.
