facthunter Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Which landing? . The ground MUST be there somewhere? By the looks of that, HE could have done the same when taxiiing. That's NOT a REAL groundloop. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thruster88 Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 As a somewhat experienced tail wheel pilot, I see wings level down the runway suggesting the cross wind was not that strong. Then no rudder input when it was required. There would be a fair amount of pressure flying into oshkosh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 25 gusting 30 winds even if only a few degrees off in a small taildragger is not an easy task. I wouldnt like to criticise as I only have about 200 hours in taildraggers, but in my opinion they werent the type of conditions you should be trying a 3 pointer in a light tailwheel aircraft or using as much flap as he had in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 The windsock shows a fair bit of wind. No sign of rudder action. He should have done a wheeler landing in those conditions to pin it on and not have so much flap after contact. Having an audience should not come into it. Put the work in that's needed on the occasion. Every landing can be different.. It shows how incredibly docile a 180 is at low airspeed, but you need more speed in gusts to make it safe to control. A bounce with a taildragger usually results in a nose up pitch . Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skippydiesel Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I lust after (the look of) the straight tailed Cessna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 It's more sensible than the stylised later ones. Nev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
