Forced Landing YBSK
Surprised that this didn't make the media.

Wow!! Great video and congrats to the pilot for a successful outcome. Looks like the wheels copped a bit of a beating when it landed. Anyone know how much damage was sustained.
What was the cause? Engine failure or something else? He said engine troubles did he?

Never seen anything like that before, a little more height and he might have completed the turn onto 29R. It looks like he almost stalled it onto the ground, could have easily been tragic.
With an engine failure on takeoff from 29R, it would be highly unlike to make it back to the threshhold of 29R. Even if he made it to 1000ft heading for Parramatta, it is over 12,000ft back to the 29R threshold, you can't glide that far. Possibly an engine failure on downwind ? They both walked away in one piece, so that's one thing to be happy about.

Looks like VH-PXS, I flew it from Parafield to Ararat back in 1968 it was brand new with about 30 hours on the clock

Awesome footage and I'm surprised it didn't make the media either.
This explains the changed pattern entry instructions I received on 06/06/09 when returning to Bankstown from the Training area. Saw that aircraft off the 29R threshold and couldn't figure out how it got there. Thanks for the post  Dan

You can watch the WebTrak radar replay if you go to 6/6/2009 at 1124 to 1127.
http://syd.webtrak-lochard.com/template/index.html Centre on Bankstown Airport and go to the zoom level third bar from the + The aircraft approached from 2RN, past Warwick Farm at around 1200ft and makes a normal, if somewhat close, turn for downwind. At this point the aircraft is at approx 1000ft but quickly looses altitude and is at 400ft as it makes the final right turn for the grass to the east of the 29R threshold. Engine failure or no fuel just as he turned downwind, either way very lucky for all concerned. There are some interesting tracks by other aircraft approaching from Prospect etc.
