Dear Sir. My grandad was a tail gunner in a Halifax bomber during WW2. He has passed away. He had a Canadian pilot. We have his RAF training documents which we only found at his funeral. I would be very interested and grateful if we could piece together the men he flew dozens of mission with and the plane(s) he flew in. These men were the real heroes. He never talked about the war until near his death. He always credited his Canadian pilot and navigator as the reason they made it through so many missions over Nazi Germany.

Classic video! Love it

Le pilote est t il tjrs en vie ?

Da m now i know why the planed crashed

Never push a bad position.

hybride entre avion et canot! :) MERCI pour la vidéo! :)

Why was he f###in’ about with the ailerons in a spin! Rudder, not aileron!

Not forgetting that The Yorkshire Aircraft Museum located in Yorkshire UK, who have test run their Halifax 111 engines, all 4, in their quest to return the aircraft to flying condition.

Float planes enable mistakes in 2 different mediums

Here you go Canadians. See the best video done about EFATO. This was my CFI teaching 4 kinds of EFATO plus others. First ever to do that. 1995. 4 Real landings on 4k feet long runway with 16knots winds. No BS like others still do. I took that training in 1995. We dont BS. We are Puerto Ricans. Lets be honest about EFATO training and do it right, not faked landings.. czcams.com/video/94li1apG-aI/video.html

All pilots should know "A Possible Turn" from An Impossible Turn". I have a formula for small singles Turnback Maneuver. The 777 Turnback Rule. I taught aerobatics and 2 kinds of turnbacks in my 1990's CFI years. 4 kinds of EFATO and partial power too. For heavier singles i have The 999 Turnback Rule for heavier singles. Use this formula i used about a hundred times to teach EFATO Turnbacks when CFI. It works well. I have 3 engine fails on take off on Cherokee 180 and all i landed back with no damages ever. FOR TOTAL ENGINE FAIL Use the 777 EFATO Turnback Rule for light singles. The 999 rule is for heavy singles. The 777 rule can be done even when on preflight or driving to airport. Will I be able to climb over 700 fpm? Yes? Are the winds over 7 knots? Yes? Then mark the altimeter to 700 agl for EFATO turnback. THE 777 TURNBACK RULE NO POWER- FOR LIGHT SINGLES. Between me and my 1990's students we had to do 4 turnbacks due bird strikes, loose engine cowls an engine problems on take off. 4 airplanes saved i know. iGNORANCE of Turnback is not the solution, IGNORANCE is the problem. I WILL POST THE RULES FOR PARTIAL POWER I USED TO TEACH ON RUNWAY, LATER ON

Puede hacerse sin problemas un overshoot,si el viraje es COORDINADO.Muy buen video,gracias

c'est cette musique de fond qui est trop forte et inutile ! ça ne rend pas la lesson plus attractive, c'est fatiguant ! svp on est pas obliger de faire comme les autres !

Yikes! The number of errors in this video makes it truly embarrassing. McCurdy and the Silver Dart did not make the first powered flight in the British Empire. Samuel F. Cody did on Oct. 16, 1908. Bell's organization was the Aerial Experimental Association, not the Aircraft Experiment Association. You left out the highest paid member of the AEA, their engine man, Glenn Curtiss. Thomas Selfridge was not a member of the AEA, he was an observer on behalf of the US Army. The first flight was not made on Baddeck Lake as there is no such body of water. It was on Baddeck Bay of Bras d'Or Lake. There are in fact two fully restored Halifax aircraft; this one and Friday the 13th in Yorkshire. You fail to mention the man who headed the project to recover this airplane, Karl Kjarsgaard. And just to complete my pedantic review, 3 metres is 9.8 feet, not 12 or 14.

I'm not afraid of go arounds, I never let the yaw ball get out of the brackets unless I intend to... I'm comfortable with 90° bank if it's called for, like an emergency dodge. Then my only consideration is structural load limits vs. avoiding the threat.

how about at night? i bet thats more challenging

I loved playing "Janet" in that video and boy was it a gusty cross-windy kinda day

2:01 theres actually a complete Halifax bomber at yorkshire air museum so that isnt really the only one surviving living local to the museum located in elvington a few mins from york UK ive seen there halifax

Thanks for this 👍✈️🇳🇿

The Silver Dart flew off of the Bras D,or lake in Baddeck

very well done from wigan , lancashire

only recently found out my late father built Halifax in Liverpool during war and his brother joined Canadian Air Force (dont know why not RAF) and was lost in action. So this meant a lot to me.

la vidéo est incroyablement bien faite !

Tells you how bad instructors can be not instilling a good scan by pilots. They have to learn besides a good instrument scan, the ability to recognize when one or more instruments might of failed. It's not a light skill flying. Learn as much as you can and keep learning.

I'm just reading Paul Daneman's autobiographical novel, 'If Only I Had Wings' in which he describes riding his bicycle around the perimeter track of a Yorkshire airbase whilst 22 Halifaxes took off ! The sound of 88 engines at full throttle must have been something to behold and an experience never to be repeated !

power down.. full right rudder .. most spins are left because of the engine pulling to the left. no ailerons

Fhanks

Great video, music way too loud.

Une petite piqure de rappel est toujours la bienvenue pour éviter la vrille. Bravo. Au passage je rappelle que le mot AÉRONEF désigne je cite : tout appareil se mouvant et se dirigeant dans l'air, plus léger ou plus lourd que l'air. Le mot AVION doit être utilisé OBLIGATOIREMENT pour désigner un plus lourd que l'air. ( Texte OFFICIEL ) Merci

Thanks for the great vid!

Thank you for teaching sir 🙏

Knew an old boy who managed to survive a crash in one in France. I can't begin to imagine.

I've never seen power lines across water before so that's something I would never really consider. Although I live inland so this is probably more common in archipelagos.

Down here in the Brazilian Amazon exist over 30 floatplanes flying. Nobody ever made an water egress training. If you had a local partner, would you come and spend couple days training 2 to 3 dozen of pilots?

When “valley pilots” fly into the mountains they are afraid, “mountain pilots” are afraid all the time 😊.

Just take the extra time to come back around the other way. It's not worth over exerting the aircraft

I always wanted to get a pilot licence . Even if I did I wont fly anywhere near there .

My husband was driving his semi recently, and he got hit by a microburst that completely obliterated his tarp. It was shredded so bad.

J'ai fait aujourd'hui exercice de décrochage impressionnant le cessna et un super avion pas de coup tordue dans la vrai vie

was doing spins today to practice but never had insight on how they could happen in the real world, this video covers that very well

Très pédagogique, merci.

Sink!

I am gonna make this really simple for all of you that are pilots or want to become one..... A Go-Around because you messed up the approach is a little embarrassing but crashing your plane is the single biggest embarrassment you can ever face.

Credit to the brave Canadians during World War 2 and ever since, and your Halifax is a superb tribute to them. What a pity you could not save your own 'TSR2', the truly startling Avro Arrow, a truly mythical aeroplane like so many others, a piece of true Canadian genius but killed by politics.

It's not even that hard, just watch attitude indicator, airspeed and vertical climb. Im a student pilot and even I know this. Not trying to sound arrogant, but if you get stuck in clouds (which you shouldn't to begin with) it seems to me like its a no brainer to keep yourself level using the attitude indicator and airspeed.

I hate these woke setups. I’m really happy with female instructors with a male student, but i hate it when this setup is intentionally chosen to point out wokeness.

We have noticed an alarming RISE in pilots (pros as well) initiating ALL turns with only rudder, THEN using AILERONS to level the wings. Yes!!! All their turning is being initiated with rudder, producing the base to final deaths. A most critical phase of flight, being PRACTICED as a daily routine. Flight reviews SHOULD be catching this lack of airmanship ? Please STOP the carnage media. Address the issue !!! The CFI renewal the FEDs puts on does not. RRFUCHS CFI 1507987 since early 1960's.

Thank you. Am super stoned and just watched a plane fly overhead on a dark and coldish night. Started wondering what the start up procedure is in cold weather and how long does it take to warm up and engine. You covered it all🤟 FANTASTIC! 😁 And I know nothing about starting an engine either, or anything else about flying but would love to learn. So amazing.

Why don't you suffer blackout during this free fall ? Vertigo?
