I wonder if that is the same pilot that cartwheeled the "BUFF" at the Fairchild AFB airshow a few years ago? If not photo-shopped, his RADALT reads 'bout 30'!

Hey flaps, a 7-engine landing is an emergency!

limited rudder authority for sure.

From what I've read it is in fact the same guy, Bud Holland.

Long time lurker, first time post, a shot of my Dad, on the USS Guadalcanal CVE-60, off of Mayport fall 1944. I am honored to post on your forum.

hopfully he walked away from that

 

[VMO4]

He did, and blamed it on the LSO the rest of his days, this was not the only a/c that did not survive his career, it was different back then.

Interesting that the Hinds run on their take-offs and landings while the HiPs land like normal helos.

Cool shots of the H-60 in form with a Hind as well. Who would have ever thought we'd see a Hind escort an H-60?

I like the fact that the Hind actually passes into translational lift with the mains off the deck and the nose wheel on the deck. I can't fathom a reason for doing it other than, it looks pretty cool on the video...
