A380 at Oshkosh

[Admin]

If you haven't looked at it yet see the A380 landing at Oshkosh video that's on the home page - check out the yaw and the rudder movement - that's one HARD landing

 

Don't forget that the Oshkosh videos on the home page are continually updated to include new ones each day

On EAA radio they mentioned that it was going to try and make the first taxy way to get to Aero Shell Square if it missed the taxy way it would have had to sit on the strip and wait for the tug to come and get it and would have held up all the movements for up to an hour. sounds like they tried real hard. they were worried that it may miss the turnoff and end up boged in the grass, now that would be fun.ok everyone one two three heave

Wow! that was a pretty hard landing!! just pound her in...!:ah_oh:

 

They did well though, considering the STOL landing... see how much clearance from the edge of the taxi ways it was... not much, you wouldn't want to drop a wheel over the side... Whoops... sorry chaps, I may need a lift!

wow watched the vid. ka thump see those wings flap up and down. looked like the whole fuse flexed as it yawed side to side. shame there was no cockpit feed, bitching betty screaming SINK RATE. wonder if there was any jokes about the pilot having to replace his divots ha ha.
