210 down in Sydney

Flew it all the way into the crash. Keeping the gear up probably allowed him to make it back to the airport.

That was a fine piece of flying. I was also happy to hear the reporter call it an emergency landing rather than a crash.

 

[Rein Hart]

Wow. Very fortunate no taller buildings or wires. Kept it above stall speed nicely.

Looks like he might've put the gear lever down at the last moment judging from the video. I think I'd have kept it up, after my Cardinal experience, - think that may be part of why the aircraft was less stable on the skid - but good landing for sure.

I imagine he had a little help from ground effect/thermals over those last few buildings. Incredible piece of flying!

Yea, this was a miracle landing annd he got damn lucky. Great thing about a complex aircraft is they stop in a short distance gear up. Not taking advantage of large open area was not smart and stall spin crashes trying to extend glides to make an airport are common and equally he could have crashed into a structure killing some people.

[Hengelo]

Wow that is bloody impressive
