May 3, 20251 yr Excellent piloting skill, flew all the way to the stop. Even had the presence of mind to turn on the landing and taxi lights.

May 3, 20251 yr Author Yep, on such undulating ground he did great. Looks like the Cessna is in good shape, more importantly, I would think pilot too.

Video of the landing, shared to X, captured stunned golfers watching on in horror, with one saying, "I'm not moving," while another shouted, "Holy f---! Are they okay?" Not sure why the one guy said "I'm not moving." 😁
May 3, 20251 yr Excellent pilot skills. Better to keep the nose down and avoid the stall. Sometimes you just land where you land, gravity rules! I wonder if the pilot yelled "FOUR" Tom MAKA = Make America Kind Again

May 3, 20251 yr I reenacted this in MSFS 2024. Suffice to say it took me more than a few attempts! I could have used the 40° of flaps that the real plane has. The real-life pilot is also on YouTube, @Tylerevzz. He's 21 with around 250 hours. Crazy amount of skill and a good amount of luck too! 5ft in any direction is a sand trap or bunker mound ready to force the plane into some ground aerobatics.

May 4, 20251 yr That is most impressive to remain that calm and in control and have only 250 hours in your logbook.
