Crash caught on video from inside the plane

Agree. Still just tells you what the ENGINE is doing and not a darn thing about what the plane is doing.

I feel that the pilot has to have a sense about what the airplane is telling him during any maneuver. On take off if things aren't happening when they should be or if there is a sluggishness about progress, shut it down.When flying a larger airplane I realize that "feel" isn't isn't always a part of it and one must go by the numbers...V1, V2, Vr so to speak. Of course, before movement of the machinery an analysis of conditions is mandatory to hopefully avoid an early problem but sometimes when the conditions aren't always prominent then the careful reading of operational environment and sensitivity is . With all the high-blown "flyspeak", I did the same thing that the 108 pilot did but I was lucky enough to get away with it. Hangar flying is always correct but sometimes some of it rubs off.
