LJDRVR Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 http://www.ehowa.com/showmovie.shtm...=birdstrike.wmv Interesting piece of HUD footage, looks like maybe a T-45 at CRP. IP does a great job of handling the IFE, remaining calm while the stud starts to stress, transfering control to unload the front seater so they can focus on a re-light, making a timely decision to unass the jet and even gets a call off to the tower first. Bonus points for the use of "jeepers" as an expletive. Nice solid piece of aviating. Hope those guys didn't get hurt. [ 29.

Scooter14 Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I love Tower's reply..."Huh, you're breaking out to the north?" I bet the fireball clued him in a few seconds later. Anyone know the outcome, both guys make it out OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cb03t Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 What is the automated voice saying? I can't understand it. Dude, that video is the only one I have seen that has an ejection and ends with the plane actually crashing. Crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 They gave that plane a hell of a lot longer than I would have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hacker Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 "T-6 N-L" (no idea what that means...) and "Gear Not Down" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VL-16 Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 That IP did a nice job of keeping his cool while trying to calm the student down as well...impressive. On the other hand....****ing birds ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cb03t Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 The stud sounds like he was saying the same exact thing, T-6 N-L, when the automated voice starting saying that. Do you code a bird strike like that in other a/c? Or would you just say bird strike/engine failure? Sorry, dumb/curious cadet here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gas Man Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Great job. Watch their speed, I'm guessing their max glide is somewhere around 130. It stays close to that the whole time. Good show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LJDRVR Posted July 30, 2005 Author Share Posted July 30, 2005 I did some detective work/research. I noticed the smaller runway numbers and longer pitot tube, so I figured it was a Canadian Forces Class A. I "googled" some terms. Turns out it was a RCAF Hawk at Moose Jaw during the spring of last year. Ate a seagull at 800' after a touch and go. The British student had minor cuts but was drinking in the mess that evening. The Canadian IP wasn't so lucky, broke his femur in two places and his pelvis. Several months in the hospital. Too bad. he deserved to walk away from that one. [ 29.
