Description: St. Martin airport has a beach just 20 feet from the edge of the main runway. There are signs telling people you can be killed by being to close to a airplane taking off. I was sure I was smarter than that since I am a pilot and actually flew a 757 into the island. I was standing slightly upwind of the port engine when this AA 757 started it's takeoff. It was actually hilarious, you can see in the video as I get blown right off my feet. Nobody was hurt filming this video. |

| Earthlinked ::: Favorites 2007-12-18 18:52:10 The easy way is to join the Air Force/Navy and let them pay for your pilot training - and almost guarantee you a job when you get out as a skilled pilot with a few years of experience!! Good luck!! __________________________________________________ | |
| Earthlinked ::: Favorites 2007-12-18 18:49:25 The short answer is NO - the engines would scrape the ground if the wheels are not down. Can the wheels be 1 foot off the ground - sure - but not for long - the angle of the plane will either take off (more power) or lang (less power) but never just sit 1 foot off the ground!! __________________________________________________ | |

| unluckyday94 ::: Favorites 2007-12-03 21:51:09 Hey, I'm 13 (profile says 25) I'm gonna become a pilot someday. I you are 15 then you can start getting lessons at a local airport. At Galt (my local airport) the owner has a sign that says "Learn to fly: $45, Learn to land: $4,500." it's not cheap to become a pilot but in the end you get paid ALOT!!! __________________________________________________ | |

| fly2eat ::: Favorites 2007-12-03 08:15:44 I was responding to Giveusabrakes comment about a muslim earning 72 virgins. If you were referring to reference of muslims, other than Ok city, who else is slaughtering innocents around the world. Don't know where you live but the idea that you are free to do as you please and secure at the same time from these fanatical idiots is nonsense. The more security you demand, expect or have pushed down your throat by government to be safe from the "boogieman", the more freedom you relinquish. __________________________________________________ | |

| denbenenki3 ::: Favorites 2007-12-02 23:28:05 tell us pilot, can a 747 be guided 500ft at about one foot off the ground without wheels and not touch the ground? __________________________________________________ | |

| denbenenki3 ::: Favorites 2007-12-02 23:01:48 yr freedom and security adage does not fit here. either, at the the extreme does not allow both. and you should be ashamed you even offered such a misleading comment. you go thru life with both every day. __________________________________________________ | |
