happened in Ubatuba which, while fun to say, doesn't look like a fun incident

That is a lot of plane for a very short runway. Wrong plane for the mission. Curious to hear the rest of the story.

Not the place you posted it, either.

Yeah but that I don’t mind cause I didn’t realize there was a separate subforum

Looks like it was airborne before hitting the built up area past the runway. Going into the surf minimized the post crash fire, and no doubt resulted in there being survivors.

@eman1200 loses points for not slipping in a Brazilian wax joke.

So he was taking off?

I’m also wondering if this was an arrival or departure….

Bear in mind that there is a massively displaced threshold; it would be a feat to land and stop in the ~1840 feet remaining without the mother of all headwinds. Just over 3K for takeoff.

Looks like someone didn’t brief the airport.

 

[eman1200]

did they think the 1700 feet of landing distance was 1700 meters? or maybe it was metres? meaters? pmeters (silent 'p')?

 

[Racerx]

Not. Even. Close.

 

[mandm]

Yikes

I’d bet they knew exactly how long the runway was(n’t).
