FK9 - Emergency landing due to engine failure while climbing #HappyLanding

[sint]

That is the first time I’ve seen a turn to final where the bank angle exceeded the altitude 😳 all that matters though is living to fly again tomorrow, well done friend.

[delanehood]

Holy shit! Congrats on a successful "impossible turn"

[cptn]

Dude practically pulls back into his parking spot lmao! Nice work up there!

[gerardmoran]

Good job that worked out! I was really concerned about him dragging a wingtip and cartwheeling but he made it. The field near the river was tempting.

"kurzes Vergnügen" cracked me up, thanks. 😅
good job bringing her down safely.

[esver]

This dude made an impossible turn look easy. Impressive. But I wouldn’t try that twice lol.

[toddcianciulli]

Wow. Great job. Not a foot of altitude to spare. Am I the only one who would have gone for the field in front of me instead of doing the 180?

Das sind diese Momente, wo sich alles in der Magengegend sammelt. Sehr gut gemacht, die Kurve in Bodennähe hatte ich mich nicht getraut.

Great job under stress and a very soft landing 🛬

[NE]

Beautiful landing and beautiful plane.

[TomatoWithARifle]

straight to the point. I love it! Great save!

[dominikfriedl]

Wow! Die Endkurve war echt sportlich, aber Respekt! In so einer Situation die Ruhe zu bewahren ist nicht einfach.

[JackG]

Fck yeah.... dude is a total boss... I want him as my pilot!!!

[pietervisser]

Wow, pants change needed after that one! Great outcome at the end of the day.

[drizler]

Note how he did that impossible turn VERY GENTLY. It’s either got to be that or a 😓 wing over to pull that off. Great job!

[theyard]

I applauded that guy for that amazing landing. Hell Yea!

[missbrandyholloway]

i learned those turnbacks after EFATO in 1997. This was a partial power engine fail engine i can tell. A Partial Power EFATO Turnback. No need to lower nose under horizon due the first 180 degrees of turn you sort of keep the altitude with some power you have. But you are lower at the 180 deg point than a No power EFATO Turnback. I practiced Partial Power EFATO Turnbacks from 400 agl and No Power EFATo Turnbacks from 800 agl. Piper Cherokee. ELM channel CFi taught me those.

[CFITOMAHAWK]

Cut the mixture and cut the flaps as soon you start floating. A good trick to stop sooner.

Either the pilot or co-pilot were speaking German; I'm fluent in the language. Excellent landing by PIC!
