Fake as shit. The film switches right around the stall point and the colors
are even off. Very bad editing and to the people who fell for this, even
more shame on you! You know what, I bet if you saw a dragon on TV flying
around New York you would believe it. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Why is “US AIR FORCE” written in mirror image on the front of the plane?
Proof of fakery?
SustenanceNCovering, you should shut up. Pilots fly people places so u can
go see ur relatives.
As magical as it is to fly on airplanes. They are machines and they have
their limits. Rather unfortunate to see another crew go down.
hm why pilot not calling FTX emergency ,
Driving Airplanes is a really dumb way to make a living.
Wow, talk about “pilot error”… lets take the largest cargo plane in the
air force and turn it completely sideways in a turn at just a couple
hundred feet off the ground. Yeah, that’s not gonna end well. Sad thing is,
you can see where he lost lift, and he still had time to recover (probably)
if he stopped turning and flattened it out immediately, but seemed to be
unaware that he stalled it, or possibly he just panicked and froze up.
The C-17 is amazingly maneuverable, it’s top notch. But you’d be nuts to
take any plane with less thrust ratio than a fighter jet, into *that* turn
at *that* altitude.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska – A pilot’s overly aggressive maneuvering and
overconfidence were blamed in an investigative report on a C-17 plane crash
at an Anchorage military base that killed all four airmen on board.
Besides pilot error, the crew on board was also faulted for failing to
notice the dangerous situation that culminated with the plane stalling and
crashing into some woods July 28 at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson.
“The mishap pilot violated regulatory provisions and multiple flight manual
procedures, placing the aircraft outside established flight parameters at
an attitude and altitude where recovery was not possible,” the report’s
executive summary says.
Bob Hall, a base spokesman, said Friday evening he didn’t know which of the
three pilots was at the controls when the massive $184 million plane
crashed during a training demonstration for an air show. A Pacific Air
Forces spokeswoman also said the pilot’s identity would not be disclosed
out of sensitivity to the families.
“Who sat where in the plane is not being released,” said Capt. Alysia
Harvey.
Pacific Air Forces, based at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in Hawaii,
released the results of its investigation Friday evening.
The probe “found clear and convincing evidence the cause of the mishap was
pilot error,” the report says. It also found evidence that other factors
including overconfidence and misplaced motivation contributed to the crash.
“Furthermore, the mishap co-pilot and mishap safety observer did not
realize the developing dangerous situation and failed to make appropriate
inputs.”
When the stall warning sounded, the co-pilot responded by saying
“temperature, altitude lookin’ good,” according to the report.
The investigation also found evidence that the flight deck crew ignored
warnings.
According to investigators — and video prior to the crash — the pilot made
an aggressive right turn after the C-17’s initial climb-out and left turn.
The stall-warning system was activated as the plane banked, but the pilot
continued the turn and there was no way to avoid a stall.
“Although the pilot eventually attempted to recover the aircraft, he
employed incorrect procedures, and there was not sufficient altitude to
regain controlled flight,” the report says.
The C-17 crashed into a wooded area about a minute after taking off,
sending a fireball hundreds of feet into the air and damaging a section of
the Alaska Railroad’s main track.
Killed were Maj. Michael Freyholtz, 34, of Hines, Minn.; Maj. Aaron Malone,
36, of Anchorage; Capt. Jeffrey Hill, 31, of York, Pa., and Master Sgt.
Thomas Cicardo, 47, of Anchorage. Cicardo, who was not a pilot, was
posthumously promoted to senior master sergeant Friday.
Freyholtz and Malone were pilots assigned to the Alaska Air National
Guard’s 249th Airlift Squadron. Hill was a pilot assigned to Elmendorf’s
517th Airlift Squadron, and Cicardo was the 249th Airlift Squadron
loadmaster and affiliated with the Alaska National Guard.
No one on the ground was hurt.

The video might be altered but the event is real. You can view the after
action crash photos online.
Fake fakety fuckass mutha fukkin fake!
well don’t you think he was asking for it by tilting tons and tons of
steal, left and right, and left and right, like a bird.

This is fake people. I’m a graphic designer so I would know :)
That didn’t look like pilot error to me. That looked like control surface
failure. It looks like the left aileron PCU failed, sending full servo
control to the aileron, causing the entire left wing to suddenly lose lift.
Even if the pilot tried to do that on purpose, he wouldn’t have been able
to, due to the C-17’s fly by wire system, it would have taken a few more
seconds to roll like that. You can see the pilot struggling to retain
control by fiddling with the rear elevators and right aileron, but to no
avail.
Flying that plane that way was much like drive a freight truck, like ride a
bicycle in a wobbling track
Visible fake
If you have ZERO Aviation experience or even C-17 experience Shut the F Up.
Have you read the reports? Do you know what happened? Now for all of folks
that say it is faked… BURN IN HELL. If you do a little research you will
find that this is actually the footage taken from the tower of the crash in
Elmendorf. As one or two have said already, the video was reveresed/mirror
immaged. There were reports of this with video, minus impact on CNN and
FOX. I was a C-17 Crew Chief. I know for a fact that this did happen. They
were practicing for an air show to demonstrate how the aircraft can
maneuver. An error was made and they paid with thier lives. I know people
that were friends of the crewmen that were killed. No I have not read the
reports, but one of the maintenance / human factor classses I taught, we
were shown the FULL video with FULL audio and the impact/explosion that
followed. We decided not to use the video in the class.
WOW O.O take off was WAY TOO STEEP it stalled and the pilot tried to get it
back
Pilot made a lot of mistakes, just look at the take off, he almost staled
the plane, had to make a sharp turn to the right to compensate, he lost
more speed, and then turns the plane to the other side with almost no
speed, plane had to come down like it did, basic aeronautics, he probably
flew this plane thousands of hours and got way too cocky with it. Terrible
loss, since I hate seeing pilots dying in accidents like this, but he
should have remembered he was not flying an F-18.
Yep that was pilot error no doubt
