tower i seem to have lost rpm six times remember julie roger do you need the assistant i don't think i'm gonna make the runway [Music] [Music] hobby he's the pilot there's no one else [Music] 4 217 [Music] there's only one occupant he is out walking small laceration to the forehead you can slow down anyone else who's you can slow down everyone who's responding [Applause] make sure there's no fuel there's a small amount of fluid leaking underneath the engine but that is it that's why i'm looking to see well there's dope the way he's sitting here is like he come right in over here 500 yards till the runway and i lost complete power four to 17. that's a negative on blocking traffic he's in an empty dirt lot barely obstructing the roadway hey i don't mean i need to get off the phone okay hey i gotta get off the phone i i gotta talk to the police officers i'm sorry okay so you did not hit a power line anything you guys okay that's awesome that's awesome here and it spun it and stopped um who's giving us i don't know how i dodged this power line because i must have come right underneath it okay i'm sorry man i don't really know what's going on right now um is that what's that look like lift up your head for me it's a little cut okay i think i hit here okay it looks like you so which way did you fly in i was coming in here okay to go into the airport one way the airport okay and then i lost power okay and i was like a thousand feet above the ground okay couldn't get it back i'm pretty sure my fuel was expended on both of my tanks okay so you kind of like floated in yep i hit right here i hit here and then you kind of i just hit i remember seeing stars and then i got out of the plane and i ran as fast as i could because i didn't know if it was going to let these medics talk with you a little cut on the forehead um that's about it i feel fine i think my shoulder might have hit the yoke okay did you get knocked unconscious no you didn't reach your forehead so there's a little lesson here um he can get on lincoln and then go to the corner of lincoln and mojave probably the best place less congested i think dispatch has already let him know yeah i'm fine everything's okay i was checked out by the medic there's no i'm not injured you guys are which medic unit are you guys uh you guys do me a favor will you check the fuel tanks there's probably gonna be a lot of people here to look at this man okay you got a small amount of fuel that's leaking at least it looks like fuel i'm not a playing guy it's fluid if it's blue it's steel okay those guys know yeah so we'll just let them do it yep [Music] saw's over there right on navajo did you see a crash no but they're like it's crashing on mojave and i was like i'm on the lobby everyone saw you come down yeah i was like three streets over on another crash i was gonna make it to the airport because i thought i had enough and then i i realized i wasn't going to what happened so lost that's probably true well i'm i was low on fuel and uh so real quick man do you have an id on it is it in your vehicle and you're in your vehicle in your area i have my pilot's license okay what's your name tyler tyler tyler what's your last name coates how do you spell that c-o-a-t-s your data burster tyler real quick guy just varsity did you shut off the batteries and all that stuff i did yeah tyler c-o-h-s my information my stuff is in the plane we'll we'll probably get it all man you don't want to go to the hospital i maybe just get this cleaned up yeah did you uh pass out for anything whenever you hit your head i saw stars and my my heart was pumping pretty quick and then i just i got out of the plane immediately just in case you know flying this way gonna hit the runway lost all power he thinks he ran out of fuel came through coasted landed this way so southbound let's make sure the hoses and stuff we're going to want that out because they're going to want to get the faa is going to have to investigate this they're going to want to check all these markers you want to tape it off it says uh yeah let's take it off okay so get some tape to start with that pole and run it around here all the way to here okay i got plenty of tape so we're pretty much just gonna we'll start right here yeah and just the whole thing i was like listening to it be like here we'll probably tie it off right there at that last pole and then i think we should be all right [Music] i got you right here i got it okay here yeah i think i think we can do a perimeter from here to here yeah and like maybe that light close to that tree and just shut this down and have two options post yeah and then we'll keep that alleyway blocked off um will you get the firefighters info who got in the airplane and turn it off because they're going to want to talk to the the ntsb is going to want to talk to them i know they already shot they got the pilot said he should no he shut everything off okay so fire didn't have to show they were in there doing some stuff so go get with them find out who it was and get their info and find out what they did okay and tie off from what that post to the tree yeah right in front of fire and then from here to here hey nicole well you know what maybe do on the other side of the fire truck so that we don't get people in okay inside i need to talk with whoever or i need to get the information whoever got into the planet i like the way how first you told the guy that his kids were skinny and then they're like well it's not like they're chubby oh i was like dude you just keep digging that hole frasier tape off that end tape off right there yeah the end of the strip that firefighter has it v-r-o-o-k date of birth phone number okay what engine are you with or what engine one yeah okay what did you do when you went inside the cockpit turned off the master to the batteries map so you turned off the master to the battery and the fuel yep and that's it that's it okay and he jumped up there very briefly and kind of moved his bag and i told him that you guys just wanted to leave everything so then he just kind of set it back there so the bat his bag got moved briefly and then just set it back in the back seat cool um and that was it that you're the only one who went in yep okay yeah keys here in the floorboard on the passenger side on the right side okay everything else is how it was but you just need who went into the plane yeah yeah the way into the plane i've never done a crank or plane crash so i have no idea you know you don't see him a lot and i actually live for three years and this is my first one really there you go cool probably be good to get the number of the plane cherokee 180 is the uh model of the plane cherokee 180. i guess they should name 9467 jump has anyone added a plane's tag number it's going to be a model cherokee 180 tag number is nora 9467 john dude i ran out of fuel on my right tank so i switched to my left and then that one and i took off uh yeah i agree i did a good job so tyler i'm just gonna get some more information from you okay what's your home address mesa arizona you know what eight five two zero seven the steering wheel virtually okay gotcha what's your social title yes well it's called red rock flight school right but the owner this is her name right here and there's jordy been notified yes samuelson so tyler i know you've already told this gentleman about what just from the beginning of your day you probably have to tell the story probably 10 times because everyone's gonna want to come and talk to you about this um so beginning of your day what happened uh i was lying here i have uh flying from a flight training student you know and one of the requirements is i have to take a 300 mile flight by myself you know just to improve efficiency in the plane so i took off around 7 30 this morning for the falcon and was making my way here and got here i was in communication with the tower did my checklist everything was looking great and then as i was established on my final approach my rpms dropped and i did my best to you know regain power regain control but it got to a point where i had to focus on putting the plane down safely because i was running out of time and here we are okay so you're on your final approach your rpm's dropped yes okay i know you're talking earlier you're talking about you think you you switched your fuel tanks so at that point when your rpms dropped is when you switched your fuel tanks oh i switched my tanks before yeah part of your part of my you know routine is every 30 minutes to switch my fuel tanks from left to right so i've been doing that and then this was my last switch and i you know okay i'm assuming i can't you know say anything i'm assuming that my fuel you assume you just ran out of fuel do you know how much gallons your how many gallons each tank holds 18 gallons each tank what i have that's what you started off with this morning so again final approach your rpms drop what do you do from there i pump the gas okay and i make sure that my fuel pump is on i make sure that my starter is on and do my best to get the plane to start you know so you attempted to start it again correct but like i said i had to start focusing on where i was gonna put it because i realized i wasn't gonna make the runway and at that point i told the tower i'm not gonna make the runway um and they just said okay okay as soon as i lost rpm i called the tower okay so you're you're looking at a place to land where do you go what do you just you start circling i know i'm losing power i'm trying to establish 80 miles an hour so that 80 miles an hour is the best live stream so that's the best that's the when you're best power is to stay at 80 so that you can fly the longest and i was i locked that in and then once i started once i locked that in i was trying to regain control so i'm just making sure your approach you're coming in going west onto the airport flying west at 2-5-0 you turn left got to 80 miles an hour so you're circling this way uh yeah so right here i'm i'm at 80 miles an hour flying straight at the runway okay and i noticed that i'm descending faster than i'm reaching the runway so i realized i'm not going to make it to the runway and that's when i started turning left looking for a safe place to land okay so you turn left you start going south correct you flip it you start going because you came in this way west right and then i took a slight left bank okay and i leveled out to find someone to stay for me okay so that's why i'm coming this way okay and the plane once i hit the ground the plane spun around okay because i hit i hit the ground coming bank left coming south yeah and then you just basically hit the dirt and then your gear just stuck in the dirt just going out and then i as soon as the plane stopped shutting out i didn't even shut it off oh no i just got the hell out of it okay i ran right over here without shoes on just so you're just passing through or well he's a student from mesa island why okay get your hours i gotcha and this was my solo cross country trip for my commercial pilot's license well i'll tell you this man good job uh seriously i don't know how you threaded the needle but good job okay yeah awesome so you ran out you went to this intersection and then people started calling saw somebody in this house and then somebody out all righty well mr coats if you want you can sit in the back of my car to stay warm i know it's kind of cold out here yes you want to sit in the back of my unit okay this will be the only time okay so real quick i just need to patch down make sure you don't have any weapons all right come take a seat mr coat take a seat i'll turn on the heater okay i'm just going to shut this just a little bit no but i will take pictures this is one for the books i already said mario won did you yeah i don't even know how they're going to get this plane out of here you're going to have to like um um now i get to use the airplane in my crash diagram i have no idea [Laughter] [Music] coming in cruising loses rpms switches his fuel tank he thinks he lost fuel in that fuel tank got to 80 started gliding dropping too fast no he wasn't going to make the runway bank left found an empty lot to drop it into right yeah how old is he yeah i would just leave it how it is man the okay the faa has to come and do whatever they need to do so do we need to stop that or what do we need to do on that just damn it dude so it doesn't run anywhere i just didn't know because i wanted to like everything left yeah i mean we're not gonna be able to plug it in right or nothing so okay so that's what we can do is keep it on the road we'll just verify they'll probably want to come hell who damned this and then this is a miracle awesome do we need pictures of this um what's that do we need pictures okay all right he's right there so let's let's do pictures and let's take a report you've got all the info so it's just in the event that they called us and they want to know who our witnesses just do it as an agency assist report um and that way if they do like you have all that information in there did you see the other wheel when you were opening the quarterback no is it underneath it [Music] so need a camera record mode okay everything do you have your camera no no yes yeah they want some pics of it okay all right all right evan wants pixels yeah if a does no ours okay i got to do a face sheet on it this asked if you could he has an awesome statement what is it so he's a training student from mesa arizona flied up flew up here he had to get over 300 miles to get his license driving up here in communications with the runway does all his checklists starts losing power losing rpms that's what he said um loses all rpms switches tanks still has nothing to think he lost fuel in his left tank so he's like doing everything he needed yeah he's trying to restart it restart it um gets to 80 miles an hour because that's the perfect lighting speed supposedly no he's dropping not going to make the runway he starts looking for a best place to land it down banks left sees a dirt field hits spins he jumps out and runs away thinking like he's going to blow her so like he hit and then jumped out like as a hit right here yeah so it hit he spun came to a stop he jumped out without shoes on he he had to let me know that right now late to the intersection and then we all came [Music] that's pretty good right okay bank left coming south and then you just basically hit the dirt and then your your gear just stuck in the dirt and you spun out and then i as soon as the plane stopped shut everything down i didn't even shut up oh no i just forgot okay i ran right over here without shoes on just so you're just passing through or well he's a student from basic students oh okay why okay i get your hours i gotcha and this was my solo cross-country trip for my commercial license well i'll tell you this man good job uh seriously like you picked like i don't know how you threaded the needle but good job okay so yeah he said he ran out of fuel he realized he wasn't going to make it and he started looking for spot to land and this is the first place because he was coming west and he saw this first to the south so he just banks it hard left and puts it in the dirt just like you thought and then when his when he hits the dirt it they just his gear instead of rolling it just digs in and he freaking spins out and lands up right here which is actually better because he kept rolling oh yeah no he would yeah this is perfect like and honest to god like how he missed all the trees and the power lines and everything that would have been the park yeah that's it where is he local no he said he's on he's a student pilot and he's on his cross-country trip to get his commercial pilot's license he's for mesa airlines i don't know i mean fuel well the plane like this you miscalculate you hit bad weather but yeah i i don't know if i didn't ask him if he was actually meant to come here or if he realized he was gonna run out of fuel so he just decided to come here no we don't this is faa all right we were asking anything on this yeah we were like is this a track series they're going to make sure this is secure yeah so there's no power lines that were hit um he said shut up he said he landed just perfect okay dude i've never seen a plane crash in the city before before i've never seen him in the plane years ago yeah i've heard about that one but i yeah i think mcpherson would have been looking up he would have seen his trash because he was parked like right there this thing has a pretty decent glide ratio so it sounds like the dude ran out of fuel he thought he could make it to the airport did he call in an alert at the airport did he say no idea mcpherson's been mainly talking to him so i don't know [Music] well you could probably work on your thing in your car that's all right dude i was like listening to it because i was doing like the one on there they said it wasn't on there so i was doing the child neglect one just to try and get some of them caught up with that four in there and uh i was like listening to it and then just like talking about sky referrals and i hear code three or something three airplane crashes i was like what the heck [Music] so are you here to like investigate or i don't know and like happy that he didn't like crash into like one of these three houses right here she said just like she said he almost tipped at her house do you think he hit this tree at all i don't think so dude like i think he's literally just like super hot power lines by like feet i bet dude this could have been so much weird [Laughter] [Music] like everybody was keying up on each other after we got 33 i i forgot about this i didn't think about the alleyway but i just saw these two i was like we don't need any more like any people to just go away what do you need for crime scene i'm just having a tape off the far side over there uh just so people don't try and climb the fence let me know oh this is actually part of the crime scene okay i'm i'm trapped in the crime scene over there well then you may be where are you at mcpherson okay he's in the back of my unit calling his parents in italy oh how old is he 23. how what was it um tyler coates tyler mesa dude like you just crashed a plane out of the sky and you're alive like i'd be freaked out too no they'll they'll come from somewhere else who are these guys so that's their uh airport manager and then the tower control guy they're local but they're the ones who have all the contacts to call when this happens um he needs to go buy a lottery ticket dude like missing this crap seriously getting hooked like this is probably one of the most amazing crash landings you'll ever see like to to land in a dirt lot this small no major injuries and you didn't like catch your plane on fire it's it's insane get his license [Music]
