Jabiru7252 Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 Most people these days are so stupid they probably thought it was normal. Check out info on millennials, it's scary what you read. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onetrack Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 What kind of pilot overstresses an airframe with a pull up like that? I'd have to say the same kind of pilot who neglects adequate takeoff checklists, and who skips over airframe maintenance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 A Pawnee should have been strong enough to take it. At least a bit more so than other light aircraft. Nev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Koreelah Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Quite a few Pawnees are used by gliding clubs as tugs- a job once offered to me. Who knows what previous damage has been done to such an old airframe? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Maybe but they all should have inspections. Nev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onetrack Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 There's an FAA AD - AD 95-12-01 - that relates to increased inspection levels of wing forward spar fuselage attachment assembly on the Pawnee - especially when the Pawnee has been used in some types of ag work. Some of the commentors indicate the mandated FAA PA-25 inspection is not strict enough. https://resources.univair.com/docs/ad-95-12-01-forward-wing-spars 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poteroo Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 Did my early cotton spraying in a Pawnee, and of course in the early 70s they were in good shape. Get a few thousand litres of corrosive spray and solids dust through them, x 20 years, and the corrosion runs wild. In any event, no sane Aggie would do a rolling pull up like that as it really stresses things. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny_galaga Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 I wouldnt go hard on the photographer. They would be wanting to go straight back to the couple. It was less than a second. They wouldn't have realised what they had filmed until after the accident. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
