none of these are my pictures. They’re perfect to illustrate a few things here.
that pilot forgot to lower the gear (him again!).
this friend pilot was not at the controls, otherwise he probably wouldn’t smile like that. Though, knowing the guy…
people got seriously injured or died on this one.
that is not the airstrip (though with a few trees cut off, it could be a good one) but the pilot needed it for the emergency after the engine apparently stopped in the air.
a Boeing 707 landed at night in lake Victoria. Power cut that night, thanks fucking Tanesco again, and the airport generator never switched on! So the pilots had to come in blind…
not sure what happened here but I doubt it is made on purpose. A Russian Antonov 12 which looks a bit out of balance.
love this one too! This is a Let 410, Czech plane, maybe my next aeroplane in South Sudan …hope the lions will be included once in a while.
