Guest palexxxx Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Why is this called "Mig 29 Belly Take-off" when it's obviously footage of a wheels up landing??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ozzie Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 if this was a landing then i have been doing it ass up for thirty years or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest palexxxx Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Please accept my humblest apologies...... I missed the start of the video when the gear collapsed.......I thought with the speed that it was travelling down the runway that it must have been a landing. I am not worthy ..........

philipnz Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 I don't think the gear "collapsed". Looks to me like he thought he was off the ground and retracted them, then found out he wasn't. Maybe he retracted flaps at the same time and got a little sink (do they takeoff with flaps?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Longden Posted June 4, 2008 Author Share Posted June 4, 2008 Its one hell of a way to get a promotion to 'flying' a desk at a small air force base in Siberia.... Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
