Gear Up Landing

This is a gear up landing caught on video from inside the aircraft.  The aircraft is a single engine Cessna 172RG.  The beeping horn that you hear in the video is a warning to the pilots that the aircraft is in the landing configuration and the gear is NOT down and locked. These two pilots are having a wonderful social conversation instead of doing the pre-landing checklist.

The ending is a good look and sound of what a gear-up landing is like.

It is amazing that the two pilots were able to ignore the warning horn and continue with the landing. The fact that someone was in the back seat with video and audio recording this magnificent performance of cockpit stupidity makes this a rare video indeed.
