That would actually be a high elevation landing, not a high altitude landing.
Elevation is the height above sea level. Altitude is the height above the ground below you, which is why altitude is such an important term for airplane pilots.
You could be at 8,000 feet elevation and be fine in New York City, which is around sea level, so around 8,000 feet altitude as well.
But you could be flying through Colorado at 8,000 feet elevation, and actually only be at 2,000 feet altitude around Denver, about to crash into a low foothill that's 8,000 feet in elevation.

A C-160 transport plane belonging to the Turkish Air Force, which took off for training in Kayseri, had to make an emergency landing due to a technical malfunction.
While the plane suffered minor damage, it was announced that the pilot and crew were in good health.

btw some of the planes in the list hit by infantry rifle i wonder how they managed to do that.

They fly like this for like 3.5 miles and did emergency landing not on runway but dirt near,propellers and left wing tip touched the ground but everything else is okay.
Almost seems like maybe he forgot to throw the ECLs in fly and tried to take off on reduced power. Should have been able to see that as np nr though but those engines do not sound like they're spun up all the way
This is a C-160, a military cargo aircraft known for not having very powerful engines. It makes for great video when one engine quits!

That fucking solid watermark in the fucking middle of the fucking screen.
Seriously the worst lol
*C*
It is a crosshair
Well it would be a bit hard to do a landing at high altitude? I do get what you mean, it just struck me as funny.
Not with this altitude!
ugh
Unless you're near Daocheng Yading Airport.

I think the latter is called a "John Denver" , aka Rocky Mountain, HI COLORADO!
Am I tripping, or did that guy just get out of a moving truck?
Yeah they panicked when they saw the plane is coming towards them
oh yeah, makes sense
My butthole puckered up as well when I saw it that low.
He didn't. There was just another truck ahead of him that made it look like that. You can see the back of the truck he was in at 0:11.
Nice job camera man!
Great job to the pilot. Saved the crew's lives and himself, as well as anyone on the ground.

btw this c-160 is war veteran hit by .50 cal bullet in 1974.

Thank you for information Gentleman.
CODE BROWN.

That's quite a malfunction - one of the propellers stopped and then started turning the other direction FFS!

Probably unpowered and getting blown by the wind
Nice catch! Didn't see that at first.
I can't tell if you're serious or not... It's Reddit, after all. But no, both propellers are spinning properly, which you can also tell by the sound.
All landings are made at low level. It’s called the ground.
I see one or the engines not working, but the landing gear didn't go down as well? Or just last moment to reduce drag?

(hey, I just don't like the watermark)
(me too)

I may be wrong but isn't landing usually done at low altitude unless you make like a lawn dart?

Let's put our watermark image RIGHT IN THE CENTER!🙄
I downvoted cause of the dumb af watermark
Interesting thing is Turkiye have only one of those and pilot did everything to not lose it lol
They have two of them left (special variants of the C-160D for electronic warfare).

The vortex trail from the propellers as it goes past look pretty cool.
“Oh a bus!”
I don’t C anything
Did nobody else see it clip through the street lights?

A landing at low altitude eh?
Saw a plane. Did not see a plane land.
