Harrier rolls, a little hovering, low inverted passes, knife edge passes, and then the landing. After a good touchdown, and 5 feet of roll, my left wheel departed the airplane, and I was suddenly on a skid (wheel pant). The axle came apart, but didn't break. Here are some pics. Anyone every seen this?

Yes! That's why I use these!
Aircraft International has them. Tried to link to the page but it would not work. Same concept but different material. These work really good!

How do you link a youtube video? My buddy was filming.

prizzy · 06-07-2008, 07:06 PM

Kent, it looks like the axle is still going into a hollowed out bolt. How is that held on?

prizzy · 06-07-2008, 07:06 PM

Damn Chris, did you get it on video? I hate to hear that man.
