Flying Skydivers in a Twin Otter
zhlédnutí 19KPřed 10 měsíci
*This video is NOT for instructional purposes, purely entertainment. Please consult a Certified Flight Instructor.* This is a typical load in the Twin Otter, all the flows and checklists are laid out. This was not the first flight of the day so the engine run-ups are not included.
ILS Approach to Minimums - Medellin
zhlédnutí 410Před 10 měsíci
Flying the ILS RWY 1 into SKRG (Medellin) during rainy conditions. Field elevation in Medellin is 7028 feet MSL, therefore everything must be flown by the numbers to get the best performance in case of a missed approach.

Where’s your seatbelt???
is there a minimum height that youd say is required to comfortably fly this aircraft?
Huh, only 10 flaps on that approach? don't need the extra drag, landing long-for-an-Otter? Love the on-screen checklists. And this has gotta be one of the best ways to have fun and get paid for it...
Si possible de m'envoyer un vidéos de réglage paramètres moteur DHC6 -400
As a winair fo this is always nice to see
Very cool! thx!
DHC6-300 (PT6-A27) ?
Beautiful plane! Trying to learn the basics of how to fly it in Xplane 12. It's crazy how you have to use each engine to turn when moving slowly on the water. You can see this quite well at the end of this video as the pilot ramps up the left prop to initiate that sharp turn to the right.
Shouldn't you also wear a parachute in a skydivers plane? In some countries is this required.
It is not required in the Twin Otter, because there is a bulkhead separating the pilot from the rest of the cabin.
He made that look super easy.
Thought everyone had to wear a rig during jump operations?
Not in the Twin Otter, because there is a bulkhead separating the pilot from the rest of the cabin, the FAA doesn't require it as part of the STC.
What kind of time do you need to get on flying the Otter? Like 1000 total?
Most insurance want 1000 TT with 25 in type.
wouldn't you descend faster with the proprs full forward? or are you trying to keep the noise down
That's true, but I guess, 3500ft/min is enough for the ears 😂
a skydiver descends at 10X that or 10,000ft in 45 seconds l@@Breenild
Gotta ask. Why props min on decent instead of max? Wouldn't max rpm work more as an aerodynamic brake?
You’re correct. We reduce the props for noise abatement, it’s a company procedure. Props max will take about a minute off the total flight time.
is that EZAIR?
Your professionalism would be even visible at the darkest night. Pleasure to watch. Always happy landings. Greetings from a glider pilot.
Wow had no idea the Saab 340 could land that short, nice job!
Skydive Pilot is on point for another jump run
Jumpers away!! My best time is when the fun jumpers want up at 12,500 to 13,000
Orange County Airport and I’ve flown in one on a jump run
Glue that f*#kin’ shaking camera bro. ! 🙈😂👎
Seems like that jobs has lots of ups and downs. lol. That’s for sharing. I didn’t realize the twin otter had a tiller.
Very nice job. Keep Climbing!
Seems a tad windy out there!
😮
Great video for memories. Grand Case can be surprisingly 'interesting' when the Tradewinds pick up. Used to love those short jumps. Always tried to keep the props 💯 synced until short final. I found it worried many pax to hear the wawwaw. Personally I also kept my hand on the throttles all through the landing.
I fly this route regularly in Microsoft Flight Simulator and I find that the hill in front of the runway makes the landing difficult. In real life, do you sometimes get strong downdrafts before the hill only to be lifted up after you passed it?
@@mrmisterno1 Jajamänsan. Very much so and due to the funnel effect the wind did not need to be 'strong'. The runway is towards the general wind (Tradewinds) so the direction is mostly within 10-20 degrees off the runway direction. I found summers 'worse'. Winter has a constant 15-20 knots easterly (unless a strong cold front manages to push down), this can reduce significantly with occasional light westerly wind during the summer months. A light head wind was surprisingly tricky as you'd still get the up draft, yet not much reduction in groundspeed making a tailwind approach to 28 necessary. Our BN2 with wing tip tanks was particularly 'bad' as the extended wing made it into a bit of a glider 😂
Nice landing
Nice video but can you turn off the CZcams image stabilization? There’s a lot of jello
Best explained approach to St Barth
That was better that most of the singles! Great airspeed control....
witch school is this ?
Nice! Was that a stall warning sound right before touchdown?
Yes. It´s good, in this case you have the lowest speed which if possible before touch down.
@@reiter1111 Ok cool
This plane design has outlived many lesser designs. the defender and islander with improved wing profiles and engines is really very impressive machine in a global time of austerity.
Think ours all had the old (early nineties). Youngest being early eighties if memory serves me right. One had tip tanks though that really turned it into a glider (in comparison). A 5 kts light headwind into SBH, with the wind thunneled through the gap and it just wouldn't come down. Often ended up on 28 instead.
Yeah to bad that Jello Effect :(
It's the CZcams image stabilization. The uploader could just turn it off.
I'm a Islander-pilot to... Good job! :)
Saw your profile. Funny, got a few thousand hours in BN2 and PN68 myself. Both lovely aircraft although the Partenavia lacked a bit of performance when on a single engine 😅
Pilot Skills
what airport is this?
Simply in love with the sound this plane makes
I landed a 182 in Culebra, Puerto Rico but not as difficult as this.
Cool vid! Were you just visiting and getting a check out? Very difficult airport to get used to.
You need to log time with an instructor doing all the different approaches into St. Barths, as well as go over the procedures and regulations for the airspace since its kinda complicated. It's also recommended that you fly on more than one day because the wind conditions and weather can change drastically. Once the instructor is comfortable with your performance he will give you the certification to land in St. Barths, which is good for one year, unless you fly in a certain number of times.
Awesome! What is required for certification to land at St Barts?
Very nicely done! thumbs up!
