Yak-50, mayday, leads to 337

The landing of a Yak-50 in a field after an engine incident.  You can see how much the pilot had to do, and in such a short time.  These are the situations where you really need to know your aircraft, and capabilities.  Not a lot of time to do calculations, or consult a chart.  Imagine how hard it would have been had he not had the GPS, and such good support from control.

But as they say, any landing that you walk away from is a good one.
