  • @APilotsHome
    @APilotsHome4 күн бұрын

    It’s a combination of all. With the performance of the Porter I could almost out-climb the mountain when departing straight ahead and with no load. It isn’t as dramatic has the video suggests but it’s still a cool view!

    Every glider and every glider pilot has no ability to go around. Every landing must be perfect. So, this video falls in the "no big deal" category.

    So love what you do for the people. I enjoy the happy faces and the anticipation of when they first hear your engine. Do you do flyover to notify your about to land? How do the people know when your arriving ? Did I hear a stall warning just as your touching down?

  • @APilotsHome
    @APilotsHome5 күн бұрын

    Thanks for your kind message, Bruce! Yeah, I usually overhead unless I have established radio coms with the village. In that case, and if they know I’m coming I’ll just go straight in to final. I guess if there are no radios then the ppl will only know the plane is coming when they hear it 😂 Yes, we usually land on the stall warning. Cheers for your question! Keep well

    The only way to get a bulldozer is to fly it in with a chopper. Too expensive for these villages to afford and extremely heavy. You’d need a big helicopter.
