Short landing, long final

[motoadve]

The shorter the landing zone the longer the final if room available.
You want time to make things right and established on a short landing, a long final will give you the time to do that, stall warning on final? Depends, I am making a video about that matter, with backcountry instructor Milne CC Pockock from Bush air Cory Robin and Jughead Counsil.

Seems like an awful long video for what should be a short landing. No thanks.

As a student pilot with an interest in off-airport flying, this was great. Thanks.

Yet another video dumped on us from a non-participant to the forum.

thanks, I guess.

Since there is no way I will watch videos that get fly-by posted here with zero description, I will just take some time to speculate on the content....

Some guy in a high-winged cezzzna of some type flies a long-ish (probably longer than necessary) approach to set up for some short-field landing probably on an unimproved landing site of some sort. Possibly doing so while employing questionable techniques.

Those of you who did click the bait and watch, amirite??

I didn't watch it either, but I'll speculate, too. Well, the fact is that a short landing is easily made from a short, even 180, approach, so I'll take the premise of the video is incorrect. And guess that it's a demo of dragging an aircraft in way too long.

Don't forget its probably set to obnoxious royalty free music as well.

I watch that guy's videos on YT. He does a fine job with his 180/182.

My apologies for no putting a description, it is added now, and will always put one from now on, don't blame guys not wanting to see videos with no description, sorry about that.

 

[Albany Tom]

No problem, just having some fun.

Say what? He has 318 messages, member since 2009. He's been here a helluva lot longer than you. Though admittedly, he doesn't post dozens of snarky messages as you do. I guess if you count snarky comments then your right, he doesn't post as much as some.

 

[Gary Ward]

I have watched plenty of his videos, I like them. I see he is flying a tail dragger now since damaging his 182 in the soft gravel bar that he showed on a video.
He does make those landings look easy. Thanks for posting his video.

I was turned off by his videos because it seems like they are just a source of income. I used to watch them, but haven't now for many months or longer.

Isn't that why people post videos on Y tube?

I guess that could be one reason, the other might be to actually share information. Either way, when I saw him selling parts off of his new to him 170 because "sponsors" had given him new parts, it just turned me off.

Have you ever filmed and edited a video? If you did, you would understand why some people want a ROI.

 

[Rich Holt]

I think any longer than about 40 secs on final becomes a distraction. Somewhere between 20-40 secs seems to be the sweet spot.

I agree, was just thinking he does a OK job editing his videos. He must have help filming also. I have messed around with my go pro and editing is necessary to put out a decent video. I have learned some things from his videos.

In reflection, I must admit, my snarky:helpful ratio has changed in the last year or so. I would like to dial-back the ratio and be more helpful, informative or otherwise not snarky. Thanks for pointing it out.

This said, I stand by my statement and will expand by saying that I do find myself growing more tired of the Youtube video dumpers that do a low pass of POA as well as a few other hangouts to drop and run.

I understand the videos are a ton of work, but I hate when they’re dropped in the middle of actual discussion threads. I have approached the mods in the past to ask that they build a YT section for the deposits. My suggestion hasn’t yet received traction.

Cheers!
