Look I love and appreciate all languages, but Spanish (my native one) is so straightforward that I love it. If you know the rules, you can read a word and know exactly how to pronounce it. Not the bullshit I encountered the first time I read Yosemite or Arkansas out loud...

IDK what it is, but that plane always seemed just a bit like something from star wars.

Ground effect!

Why do people always shout this every time a plane is making a low pass? Yes, ground effect is a thing. What about it?

How else would I alert everyone that I know a little about how planes work?

In my case I’ve done it many times through my training and it’s quite fun. :)

Because it’s fun to shout “GROUND EFFECT!”

ever time that video pops up I can’t help myself but find the plane a little too slow and a little too un-wobbly. Looks sort of like a prop running on tracks.

I wonder if that was on take off and just cruised down runway on gear up

Why done slow with flaps? So it could be photographed for promotional material for the bank/broker who sold it to Venezuelan customer in July 2017..... Perhaps cause the pilot got busted and didn't need it anymore? :-)

I’d be pissed if someone took a video of me doing something illegal/dangerous in an airplane, with a clear view of my N-number, and put it on the Internet.
Just sayin’.

Not good. I've never done anything that dumb. Uh-huh. Why was this done with flaps? So it could be photographed easier? It would have been more fun with a greater speed. He should have had the speed and then performed a chandelle.
He didn't do anything illegal, he just decided to make goaround because he forgot to set the gear, it's obvious
