A tad heavy?
Certainly tail-heavy; the airplane's behavior from the moment of
takeoff makes that obvious. Although my Spanish is not the best, I think the reporter said at the end that the mother, her son and the medical attendant (who appeared to be sitting in the baggage compartment along with a lot of medical equipment) all died while the pilot survived with serious injuries. |

This explanation is from our aviation video website: Overloaded 182? This heart-breaking video shows the departure and subsequent crash of a Cessna 182 in a remote region of Colombia. The pilot was a director/ volunteer for the Bogota Civil Air Patrol. They were transporting a patient on oxygen and the patient's mother to a hospital in Cali. The contributor notes: "The first words the pilot spoke at the beginning of the video instructs the passenger in the middle of the seat, next to the pilot, to 'Put your feet back and do not touch the pedals for nothing.' We do not yet know the cause of the accident and probably will never know." The pilot was the only person to survive, but later died in the hospital. The burning building at the end is an empty school. It's in the General Aviation section of our video page: http://www.alexisparkinn.com/general...ion_videos.htm -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Main Reason, # 1 Lack of Directional Control #2 Left Ground Effect way to early #3 Had way to much flap max 15 Degrees in a cessna overgross...... |

On a 100 degree summer day (3640 feet elevation), power is at a minimum. I was taught to use 15 degrees flaps as a max and keep the nose down until reaching the desired climb speed. Danny Deger |
