Some 40 seconds into the clip it gets rather interesting...

Impressive skid marks as well

WTF, where is it good for = Deforesting new style

What's really weard to notice is that no single authoritie is coming to check out the plane

[topsafe]

Looks like a little bit of cross-wind.... Aircraft is Air Force operated btw

Nice way to make a new taxitrack

Yeah Hurrcicane, Noticed this also.
Just a guy on a bike!? Does he come out of the plane?

And the way they pull the aircraft out of the field, with a cable (looks like a cable anyway) attached to the aircarft and some armoured vehicle. Doesn't look like a carefully planned operation.
Something like quick we pull it out off the field and nobody has seen it, espacilly not the commander, who will be back tomorrow.

Cross wind?
It is 100% tail wind... Crazy people

to the crew for the actions ...

They will fly away instantly , no mater what and then they call it stupid that so many IL76's drop out of the sky

[Custom addict]

Maar de tomtom zei "hier linksaf"


Euhm captain, acording to the map our parkingspot is right after those
bushes on the left


en ik durf te wedden dat hij de volgende morgen gewoon weer dezelfde baan
opreed om weer het luchtruim op te zoeken.

Assumptions, assumptions.
For starters, 'handbrake turn' obviously is a joke.
Furthermore: all we can not see we call invisible...

I guess Gerard Kemkers did find himself a new job, but not for very long ....

[Stafhunter]

Het lijkt er meer op dat hij op 0,26sec een klapband krijgt en daardoor zo gaat slingeren.

als ik het beeld stil zet beweegt het gras niet dus het valt wel mee met de wind.

zelfs bij minimale windkracht is het opnamegeluid al beroerd

[Slijfie]

Mijn gedachte: het feit dat de landing is gefilmd, betekent dat er er iets mis was met de kist. Of filmen ze daar iedere landing?

Groet, Rob

I think there has been a malfunction on the IL-76 brake system. If you listen closely you'll hear a sirene at 1:12, this sounds like the base sirene for a crash.

This is an accident in my opinion, not something planned.

[Propwash]

Waar maken we ons druk over?

De handbrake turn staat in de IL-76 Stupid Operating Procedures (SOP)

[Benjamin]

Toch best gaaf om te zien,...

Meeste andere kisten hadden rollend in vlammen op gegaan denk ik.

[Delta12]

Prachtig, Hoe die russen dat toch doen. Geen auto of brandweer de er bij iedereen blijft kalm geen 'oh my god' gekrijs. De zelfde avond trekken ze die kist er nog uit. En morgen vloog die waarschijnlijk wel weer. +1 voor die gasten daar! Business as usual hehe.
