Me262 loosing nacelles
 

look that shot I took in a belgian jet event.

this me262 broken his nose landing gear and you can see both engine nacelle separating ! [:-]

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

ohh man that looks bad...

how did this happen to such a nice plane?

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

it hapened stupidly.
the guy performed a flawless very realistic flight.
when the time came to land, things changed........
instead of performing a nice long realistic final, he tried to make a very short circuit without final leg (the aircraft existing the final turn with the nose on the runway)
he landed a wayyyyyyyyy too fast and you see the result

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

did you see the pilot after the crash...and the reckage?

what was the total damge...look repairable?

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

I believe this is an even better view of the unfortunate crash.

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

That is awfull. That is a beautifull plane.
If he built it, he can fix it.

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

WOWZERS!!!!!!!![:-]
thats crazy......

what a idiot...

got anymore pictures....

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

in fact that's a great shot !!!!

the plane is fixable, it's a wood airframe

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

The question is: How much dirt did those turbines swallow...?

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

in fact, theyre is a risk that the price to fix both turbines will be high:eek:

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

look the insane attitude on short final for such a model

I am not surprised with the result

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

wow... tsk tsk

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

It looks like the nose gear never did extend -- was that the case? If so, perhaps he should have tried to 3-point it (arse down) like a taildragger.

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

looks like the nose gear was fully down to me

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

I confirm the nose gear was fully down

RE: Me262 loosing nacelles
 

the amazing paradox of the internet two days after a event in belgium, a guy living in USA has better picture of a crash than a guy who was there and live 50 Miles from the event

Hey Salmonbug, where was this event?
