Got a question for you taildragger old-timers.
I've often thought about attitude and altitude control with power and elevator in various combinations and have wondered if it's possible to get a taildragger to literally drag it's tailwheel on the runway with the mains off, and do it intentionally, kind of like slowflight but REALLY low over the runway. I mean, we often try to land tailwheel first, so I was wondering if it's possible to set up to do it partially and prevent the mains from touching. I've tried in the Tcraft but can't seem to manage it. Anyone here ever done such a thing? Shawn |
