Right ON !

Same here, I always help all flyers (especially older flyers) get there planes off the field or looking for them if they crashed.

Thats funny anywhere in the world, and I don't think that anyone should worry about the guy himself, for sure he was also laughing hard.
Sad for the plane but the sound is awesome, anteater.
There is any charge for the strip landing damage?????

Full scale anteater. I would not have posted this if anyone was seriously injured.

Hey!! That old fellow was meaning to do that Elevator (first time I've seen the older guys 3D, usually us younger guys thing) He just didn't add the throttle to flair, close to the deck, at the right time!!
If you listen real close to the vid, it sounds like someone is snickering in the background. (It's contagious!!)

I am more shocked that the Cap didn't drop a wing with the slow airspeed and angle of attack. My cap would drop a wing unless you came in with some speed and 'flew it to the ground'.

I agree it was probably easy to fix, but man... that is funny. Nice he steered it to the dirt instead of toward the pits.

Not funny!!!! And not because its an old guy who crased his plane and no one helped pick it up. Its not funny on any adult level. Unless you ride the short bus..
