The first one the pilot had one hell of a wind sheer to deal with. Same with the second but at hong kongs airport which is crazy to land at with because there flight path is a right turn to the runway. The 2nd to last is just messed up. And the harrier is single engine plane and when that lets go you got nothing left.

The 4th video looks like a flight sim.
I found this about the crash:
http://www.airdisaster.com/cgi_bin/v...China+Airlines
Surprisingly few casualties.
How nice would it be for the passengers to look out the window and see this?

Those winds at the first and second are cracy, good flying by the pilots, the pilot of the Harrier just hovered to long, the engine then comes to a stall and as been said already, if that engine goes your hopeless, its got 1 rolls royce engine
Did the pilot of the Harrier get stuck with his parachute to the Harrier, looks like it but don't hope so :shock:

The reason it stalls is because if it hovers to long in a low area the exhaust gets sucked in through the intake which in turn chokes the engine of air and the plane stalls.

This video shows the f-35 in the testing fazes. On minute 1:12 you'll see that it's doing a vertical takeoff on this grate looking surface. Thats because it's hallow underneath with vents to disperse of the exhaust so not to suck it in the intake and destroy their X-plane. Safety first!
