A flying lesson he wasn't expecting...!

[McFly]

The moment a Australian trainee pilot was thrown in the deep end when a wheel feel off his light plane on take-off has been caught on tape.

The pilot was forced to circle a small airport in rural Victoria using up fuel before he brought the plane in for a two-wheel landing.

He held his nerve and made it safely, but it wasn't the smoothest of touchdowns as shown on the video (7/1/13).

Thought it was pretty easy to count to 3. He must have got side tracked on his wheel count during pre flight

He did pretty well considering, and brave to just sit there in the cockpit after it came to rest, I'd be running.

I agree, what's that saying "any landing you walk away from is a good landing."

Near miss! Plane misses woman by two feet as she films friend

Probably wasn't expecting this either....
