LOL If youve ever flown a taildragger in a hard crosswind youll know this is mandatory. No big deal.

I dont get what everyone is ranting about. This is a normal crosswind landing. very well executed but normal none the less

Used to have a Citabria, REAL men land on the the back tire. Screams like a banshee! Of course you have to replace it more, but in a show you can attract a lot of attention.

Nice landing !

@dearthpanda not flight simulator. Cessna 185, when I say tail wheel first, I mean a slightly higher angle of attack than the 3 point attitude, so the tail wheel touches first, and in a cross wind I get it to the three point attitude and lland it on two wheels, back and into wind.
The reason is I crashed an auster 'wheeling on' which happened to have flat tyres, Id assume it was due to taking off in a paddock, i admit it was a heavier-than-normal landing but the undercarriage simply split.

@Strftw Tail wheel first? In what, flight sim? Give me a break.
-
but you did it anyway!

RE: Strftw
Tail-wheel being the most delicate assembly of the aircrafts entire landing gear and you put her down tail first? Even in a crosswind scenario?
-
Thats proper crosswind technique, thats how i land in my 152 in flight school, i dont know much about flying taildraggers but it looked nice to me
-
thats actually wasnt a bad landing... i allways touch the tail wheel first though.

Aeronca Chief takeoff, landing and groundloop!by mctim64105,788 views
impressive. and yeah it would have to be a crosswind or he would have drifted off the runway. correct me if i'm wrong
Bagels108 3 years ago
thanks, no crosswind actually. you can make the airplane do it in a slip attitude. It's not the best for the tires because the one wheel that touches down is not aligned with the runway. if there was enough of a crosswind then the wheel/plane axis would align and make it easier to do, typical crosswind landing.

Hey, it's called showing off!! Notice how much power he was carrying at touchdown - a lot. Hey, it's OK to show off. If I could do that I would! heh, heh, heh

no extra power, maybe a little extra airspeed!
