Was it a non towered field? .......just to play devils advocate.....
According to 91.119 "Except for T/O and LNDG....no person may op a/c below following alts.....anywhere - if pwr unit fails emergency lndg without undue hazard to persons or property on the sfc"
Would an engine failure at 50ft above the rwy create undue hazard to those on the sfc? Don't think so.
Arguable
What if it goes out in the last 1-2000 feet so you wouldn't have enough room before running through the fence and onto the road.
As long as tower approves it, or it's been announced on CTAF and it's not busy, I see no problem with it.
I think it would be very very hard to get violated for that, especially at 50 ft.
Ok I just looked up and a Cessna 172 is roughly 12 feet tall. Now that I think about it, it was probably ~25 AGL.
12 feet tall?? That doesnt sound right. I could be wrong though.
That's probably including the tail.12 feet tall?? That doesnt sound right. I could be wrong though.
A Mooney, around 50ft AGL, low pass over the length of the runway with the gear and flaps up?
What about a C172?
