Yak 50 engine failure

  • A beautiful day in the magnificent Lake District of the UK; perfect for wandering the skies in a Yak 50, until the oil pressure drops and the engine stops. This video shows the importance of receiving good foundation training when getting your Warbirds rating: what you learn first will stick to your memory. If you learn poor habits, or if your understanding of your aircraft's systems is too vague, it will be extremely difficult to de-learn so that you can re-learn the right way. The flying environment in a Warbird is pretty different to your average club's aircraft, so it is important to receive training from an organization who has adapted its pedagogy to maximize efficiency for Warbirds pilots and prepare them to anything coming down the track, like display flying and formation flying. Contact us to find out more: www.Love4aviation.com
    Details: The aircraft was on a local flight from Carlisle Airport when the engine failed due to loss of oil pressure. The windscreen became partially obscured with an oil film but the pilot was able to make a forced landing in a field, during which the aircraft was substantially damaged. He vacated the aircraft unaided, but later attended hospital as his injuries became more apparent. On examining the engine, the pilot identified that the oil pressure adjustment valve was missing from the oil scavenge pump housing. It was found in the lower cowling with no evidence of the expected wire locking. He believed that the valve had worked loose and fallen out during the accident flight, causing the oil loss. The aircraft had recently undergone extensive maintenance at EGMJ which included an overhaul of the oil scavenge pump assembly. Initial flights following this work revealed a small oil leak in the area of the pump, which at the time, was thought to be have been remedied by an engineer tightening the small vertical bolts adjacent to the pressure adjustment valve.
    Pilot: Andy Wilson
    Aircraft: Yak-50
    Location: Bothel, Cumbria

    A very unfortunate situation so I feel a bit weird saying this, but it was lovely to watch! Seeing you scope out the landing and myself figuring out where you'd picked, my nuts ran a bit high so I can't imagine what you were feeling, then the landing... sticky mud tipped you a bit but wow... perfect. I suck at anything above how high I can jump, but I'd gladly get in a plane with you sir!

    The Yakovlev Yak-50 has a Wing loading: 60.7 kg/m² (12.43 lb/(sq ft)). yet he is gliding for 7 minutes. The engine must have still been producing some thrust. Pilot did a great job of controlling plane and keeping calm down to the landing.

    Oh man.. this was a little too close to home. I suffered a broken pushrod in a C152 Aerobat (with a student pilot...first lesson), and had to nurse this aircraft back to home, battling to maintain altitude until I was back over the strip, and then just dump it back to the ground. The field field had been closed, and all emergency services were in attendance. We made it, and my new student continued with me. Anyway, it was so great to see that this man in the YAK survived, and that there was fairly minimal damage to the aircraft. Only a fellow pilot could truly understand.

    • @davecrupel2817
      @davecrupel2817 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Ragimund VonWallat well, staying calm and collected is the best thing you can do in _any_ dangerous or otherwise challenging situation.
      And flying, as a whole, is inherently dangerous. _Very_ dangerous. Like....frontier dangerous. Absolutely not for the soft-hearted.
      I personally believe one should not go up into the air unless they accept the possibility that they may not come back down alive.

    • @beaugunn2632
      @beaugunn2632 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Daniel, I agree totally, but then I leaned to fly I learned to fly to get over a crippling fear of heights. Am I still afraid of heights... you bet! I go weak in the knees and sick in my stomach just playing video games on a rooftop! But in an aircraft ( when at the controls ), I could not be more at home. The real blessing is that the self control that one MUST exercise when piloting an aircraft transfers itself into so many areas of one's life ( except rooftop video games in my case LOL). Have you ever flown? If not, why not give a trial flight a go: you need not take it any further, but challenge yourself : ), you may well be surprised!

    1. What does this have to do with watches apart from the fact he looks at one at the start? We just remember the brand because its associated with a crash? OK, just seeking understanding.
    2. Really thought he was going to make friends with that wall at the end, he looked like he was well into stall territory and when that wing dropped ... I am amazed it was all in one piece! Well done, those walls must be tough to spot from the air

    Taking a ride on a supply hop the Otter I was in developed an oil leak.
    I was looking around for a clearing in the jungle canopy when the pilot pointed and said "We'll put down there."
    I said "Where? That footprint?!!" Sure enough, it was a clearing just long enough to land.
    The mark of a true professional is if you remembered to use the toilet BEFORE the emergency.
