Wow, some people need to relax...

That was funny stuff!

It's nice to see that some people can still take their jobs seriously without taking themselve's too seriously.

Keep em coming Caneman!!

I'll definitely be listening to his radio show when I'm on LAX and LGB 36 hour layovers. That landing footage with the stabilizer horn going off definitely made me miss the Douglasaurus.
Looked like a good landing to me, but putting the gear out at a thousand feet is quite ballsy.

I think it's hi-larious. Just remember, the guy does professional stand-up comedy.
Anyway, would someone be kind enough to tell me what emery is? As in ex-emery that folks keep stating.

Don't forget Burlington Air Express (BAX) and the contract carriers of old. Rosenbaum has an ex cappy who sells videos of cockpit footage from the DC-8 that is pretty good. You can check his site out at: http://www.dc8.org/store/bertrand/videos.php

CaneMan the videos are great.......... "I got some striiiiipes and sh*t, I'm pretty much in chaaaaaarge of this thing" priceless

Your concept of being professional and mine are a "little" different. You've had your 15 minutes of fame. Judging by the video, the next time we see you on ABC TV, John Nance may be opining in the background.

If only pilots could see the video, I'd have no problem with it. Unfortunately, he wants the world to view it. It does little to help the general public's perception of any of us.

John Nance? His head would 'splode if he saw this video.

Not sayin' this would be a bad thing.

Great video... wish there was more of it. Think it is your best one! Look at what is in the back of my "jeeeeeeeeeet".

YEP, I remember that day very well..Still trying to get the bugs out of my eyes and nose. That was a fun ride. Looks like an old DC8-40..wow those engines are state of the art.

YOU guys are all great here. Thanks for the guys who are sticking up for me. Like I said, Its just comedy. Can't a guy have some fun. Yes the video was taken by a jump seater, and for ALL YOU GODS that dont know a DC8, Well, there OLD Planes and stuff just goes off, like the Sink Rate, when you make a Short Field Landing. The runway in the video was 6000'. I guess guys in the B777 and A340's and Such Jets don't get to fly much, as they just push the buttons. Easy Money, But you lose the seat of your pants skills. Once a freight dog, alwasy a freight dog. WE dogs get it in BY HAND Flying when others can't. Like to 100 Overcast - RVR1800 or less in heavy jets, AND YES Hand Flying. These DC8 autopilots go out quit often, and dont always work as well as hand flying on the approaches.

Look at my Cessna Video http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5726382945510200350

And My Rocket Video too. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4757040929562597768&q=CANEMAN

Jetdog,

You dont need to defend yourself, personally I found it unusual but funny.

You paid your dues, I sure wish i could say the same with some of the other members here.....yeah right.

Goodluck..
