Eric. Really. Give it a break.

OK, Mark...
Early on, I mentioned that this may not apply to a Yak-50, which
apparently you missed. No one has ever said that there is no way to
destroy the engine on a Yak-50 by landing it gear-up. That doesn't
invalidate what was written in the article, which discusses specific
circumstances and the examined aftermath. It somewhat anecdotal, but
it's about many, many airplanes and from people who do this all the
time. Since narrow parameters were applied in the article, including
mention of an aircraft other than a Yak-50, and since in my first
string entry I mentioned that I had paraphrased it and that the
article should be read, your reaction was inappropriate. I hope that
you are not gear-up landing Yak-50s on a regular basis (or witnessing
the same), so unless that's the case, I don't think your experience
"trumps" the career experience of people who tear down and fix these
things every day. You have not asked me anything multiple times. You
suggested things like trying it myself, and that if I hadn't been
through it, I shouldn't weigh in on this. Your unexplainable rage and
belligerence doesn't compel me to respond. The old saying about
assumptions applies well in this situation.

I was not looking to excuse my bad manners. I was just explaining
why I had them.
You pointed out an article written by an expert. And he is an
expert. I do not refute that. But I said that I saw it happen.
That trumps the ace.
I did not misquote you or take you out of context. I said that a
prop hitting the ground on a YAK-50 making a gear up landing does
not get ground down 1/10th of an inch at a time, based on what I saw
happen with my own eyes and the pieces of that prop that I then went
out and picked up off the runway.
I do not have superior wisdom. I do have good eyesight.
Unless you have landed a YAK-50 with the gear up or have seen this
type of prop hit the ground on a gear up landing, you have zero
experience in the matter. I have asked you multiple times whether
you have or have not. You have not responded. If you have, please
say so, otherwise I think it is a perfectly 'good idea' to assume
you have not.
Sorry about that. And sorry to the YAK LIST. I try to help people
when I can, but once in awhile I am a tad rude, or better said, a
tad sarcastic.
This is apparently one of those times. Sigh.
Once in awhile I just have a hard time backing down to someone that
tries to tell me that I don't know what I saw with my own eyes.
Mark

Mark:
I am not calling you a lair or disputing your experience. I pointed
out an article written by someone who I know to be expert in this
area. I also objected to being misquoted and taken out of context.
Just because I didn't agree with everything you said doesn't mean I
was saying that I was "absolutely right". I merely referred to the
paper and then clarified certain things that were mischaracterized and
incorrectly repeated. We're not even talking about the exact same
conditions, but you seem to need to force everyone to defer to your
superior wisdom.
Since you don't know me, I don't think it's a good idea for you to say
that I have "ZERO experience" about this.
Lastly, siting your own history of bad manners hardly excuses them.

ERIC, You are carrying this matter on ad nauseum; you come across as a low time, low experienced , verbose bore; the list finds you overbearing and argumentative. If there were a way to end this with a motion for a directed verdict this would be the proper time for such a remedy. You apparently have not been around this forum long enough to realize that Mark Bitterlich is a highly respected, educated and experienced source of information . His contribution to this list stems from both high pilot experience and long service as a tech representative for a major aviation manufacturer. I doubt that you will be able to B.S. your way into a position of comparative respect by further posting . Now, in the interest of peace and harmony,give us a break and shut the hell up.
Respectfully, Cliff Umscheid ,

Cliff:
We already agreed to give it a break, so this is an unnecessary exercise on your part. I also don't think you speak for the list.
I am categorically uninterested in your opinion of me you sanctimonious twerp.
Quite unespectfully, Eric

Guys, I am only an acute Yak admirer (not an owner) w/ only a tiny fraction of the flight experience most of you have and very little intimate knowledge of the type. But if I may...this forum is an amazingly useful tool - not only for communication, but also education. When experiences such as the recent engine-out incident are posted, shouldn't they be viewed with an eye to the unique 1st hand instruction they provide - rather than debated viciously over? After all, even w/ a resource as awesome as the video, it still cannot equal "being there." In the end, the pilot walked away from an emergency landing he can be proud of. He lived to fly another day - and I'm sure he will. Also, when such incidents are so closely scrutinized, it may stand to reason that pilots able to post similar information - or questions - may neglect to do so for fear of similar unpleasantries. Share your knowledge w/ the world - but the minute you are convinced you "know it all," you set yourself up for disaster. Don't be afraid to learn...
"Pride comes before the fall."
I aspire to fly w/ a red star on my wings. But until then, I will simply continue to read (all) the postings, save (many) and continue to learn from the guys doing NOW what I may be so blessed to do one day.
Thanks for all you do, Red Star Pilots.

ERIC, You are carrying this matter on ad nauseum; you come across as a low time, low experienced , verbose bore; the list finds you overbearing and argumentative. If there were a way to end this with a motion for a directed verdict this would be the proper time for such a remedy. You apparently have not been around this forum long enough to realize that Mark Bitterlich is a highly respected, educated and experienced source of information . His contribution to this list stems from both high pilot experience and long service as a tech representative for a major aviation manufacturer. I doubt that you will be able to B.S. your way into a position of comparative respect by further posting . Now, in the interest of peace and harmony,give us a break and shut the hell up.

Good to see not much has changed.
Through all the ridiculous chaff, I did not see anyone mention how calmly this individual dealt with this potentially life ending incident. People have died for lesser issues.
I would like to commend the individual for his cool headed reaction AND action during this unfortunate event. He appears to have done an outstanding job from beginning to end and that is the true lesson here.
90% of surviving most life threatening events is to keep your wits and to rely on good training. Luck is the other 10%.

I think it's a new record................... This brings the total to 86
postings on this single thread..... Give or take a few, the majority
unnecessary chaff.

Copy...your partner did good...flew the airplane and handled the emergency.
Was not there... do not know the terrain...most importantly he saved his
bacon and no one on the ground was injured. For any politically correct on
the list...scratch bacon and add GOAT.

Agreed, and we probably moved on to the silly stuff right away because
there was nothing to argue about with the guy's landing, which was
nicely done. Evidently, we spoiled a golden moment.

Looks like one of those links-style courses they pick for the British
open.
