@hcarvalhoalves They CAN glide without an engine... but not without sufficient altitude to set up an autorotation? landing.

@RedDevilPilot? Well said my friend...Well said..

Don't know? how, but glad all are okay... In that situation, everything happens so fast that you haven't time to be scared or indeed think, before it's all over.

It sucks to fly on something that can't glide without? engine.

im scared as that happen you fall out of the? sky you think your gonna die

Looks as though there was little to no time to enter a proper auto. What was your airspeed and altitude? Looks to be about 50? feet AGL. That dead man's curve can be a bitch.

@rstingrayNY thank you
By: rstingrayNY. on 19 Aug 11, 03:03:29
@DiamondPilotDan I? just included the narrative of the accident report in the video description. Thanks for the heads up on the NTSB link.
By: DiamondPilotDan. on 18 Aug 11, 23:24:13
"everybody okay?" He's a boss! Id be like? HOLY F*CK WHAT THE F*CK I 'M PRETTY SURE I JUST POOPED
By: DiamondPilotDan. on 18 Aug 11, 23:21:42
@Kurmuh rotors not propellers?? and if you look up "autorotation" you can find out what the pilot did here, and what pilots usually do if an engine fails:)
By: DiamondPilotDan. on 18 Aug 11, 23:20:25
please update the NTSB link? they re-did their website and the link failed :( and i really? wanna read the report

THAT'S WHY I HATE HELICOPTERS!!?????? ????? ?? ??????????
By: Kurmuh. on 12 Aug 11, 08:22:19
Hold up, don't the propellers help a flyer guide his way down incase the engine? does fail? That's why the propellers are slightly angled downward, so it can help the pilots land safer if the engine does fail...? That seems really unlucky for those pilots, glad noone was hurt.
By: highlo3517. on 12 Aug 11, 02:16:38
this is what we call a "dead stick" landing. when? faced with an emergency and you have no power you have no time and few choices. make the wrong one and your dead.
By: highlo3517. on 12 Aug 11, 02:13:15
@adamsb33 Not all helicopters are the same but the few i work on there is a big door right behing the cockpit behind the pilots looks kinda like the door from a? small broom closet its is an access panel for us to work on flight controls.
By: bliglum. on 29 Jul 11, 22:12:33
Damn that sucks.. Not enough altitude for full autorotation? Either way,? the pilot did a good job.. Anything you can walk away from is a good landing : )
By: madskillzj. on 27 Jul 11, 20:20:36
@tofeandrice5150 I would have been fucking freaking out. just like shit were? going down. fuuuuck. thats an appropriate reaction.
By: schlusselmensch. on 26 Jul 11, 01:31:40
@manysticks Not if the only useable field was 2 X Alt. away LOL. You'd be surprised how little room airplanes need. There is no? clear survival advantage in rotary wing aircraft.
By: tofeandrice5150. on 14 Jul 11, 15:44:10
how is? nobody like " OH FUCK" falling out of the sky
By: blunty6feetunder. on 11 Jul 11, 05:22:11
Transformers robots in? disguise!
By: Tjita1. on 21 Jun 11, 15:11:07
@manysticks Difference is a helicopter gives you less thinking time with a sink? rate in excess of 2000 fpm, and if you screw up you can in fact end up falling like a rock. Not saying that you cant screw up in an airplane too, but it is most of the time easier to get out of. Luckily both categories of pilots train for such incidents, but never the less, an engine out at 500 feet agl is not a laughing matter with over 2000 fpm decent.

Well that? took care of that trip.
