Administrators Eric Posted December 12, 2020 Administrators Share Posted December 12, 2020 It seems crazy to me to be maneuvering like that so close to the ground. He seems like a hell of a pilot, but it wouldn’t take much going wrong to end him. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RenoF250 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Good but very stupid. No reason to do that but to try to show off. Lots of drones parked there at the end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tadbart Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 He's wasting a LOT of altitude above him. Stupid, reckless, dangerous. If I was riding with him, when we got back on the ground, I'd kick his ass. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Eric Posted December 13, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted December 13, 2020 This reminds me of that dumbass B-52 pilot that was hotdogging the aircraft to show off for some visiting brass and dumped the plane, killing everyone onboard.

Administrators Eric Posted December 13, 2020 Author Administrators Share Posted December 13, 2020 If your wings are perpendicular to the ground, you aren’t making lift. What was this guy thinking? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, F that guy, and everyone who didn't speak up to have him grounded BEFORE this incident. RIP to the rest of the Crew. I hope the pilot is still burning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willie-pete Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 (edited) Lt. Col. Bud Holland in Czar 52; used as a case study afterwards by the AF in how NOT to manage Officers under your command. The dark object is the co-pilots hatch blowing off prior to ejection. He, of course, wasn't quite quick enough. Edited December 13, 2020 by willie-pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
