The only thing I would add is to have the mental attitude that you're not committed. Regardless of how gnarly it is if you are airborne you're safe, there's nothing to crash into, and especially in gusty conditions the next time around might be a piece of cake if the timing is right.

Excellent. I fly a J3C-65 and while getting my tail wheel certification my last two sessions were with a strong crosswind and varying winds from east to west. West is prevailing where I live and my runway is 32/14. I feel very priveleged to have had somewhat bad February weather while getting certified. If I had learned on soft turf and steady weather I might have had more trouble landing where I'm from. Instead I can take off with nice weather and return later to my home airport and find the weather has changed and still handel it. No problems solo so far but I've heard that if you haven't had a ground loop you will some day. I'm young I can wait. I'm only 78 :-)

Curious….nice , really WIDE grass runway….now , one of my rules is land on the center line….not so much here…get on the downwind side of the runway and make your landing across it and minimize the X wind angle…. And personally, I prefer to crab into the wind rather than wing down ….maintain a ground track…straight in or an angled approach……

with the extra speed of cross wind and 20 flap 500 ft to 700 ft, unless I dump the flaps and brake harder.. if I can land 30 flap normally, 300-500 ft. without pushing it.. max capability slow high alpha, 200 to 400. depending if you stick it well. Competitive level with it empty stripped and no gas. a little under 200 on a good one a little over 200 on a miss. I dont practice that much tho.. if you mis time the punch at the end, its hard down into a 3 pt.. the aircraft can easily land tail first if you hold it off.. but in the cross winds my personal technique is to stick it at 20 flap, dump the flap and get it slowed down fairly quickly. I know of several that land 30 flap no matter what.. but thats Not my preferred method.. I feel the lateral control suffers in a big cross wind with it.

They are not really comparable even though they are in the same family.. I know people who own both aircraft.. They both perform very well, but of course the 185 series of aircraft have the 520/550 size motors, and have enormous Lift capability.. there is a reason that aircraft is the most popular Float aircraft. The husky's history came from the super cub lineage.. 180hp, vs 250+ for the 185.. The 185 is faster as well.. but the aircraft is also hard to find.. They are both amazing aircraft.. I have a friend with a 550/voyager powered 185, and a husky.. he loves both aircraft.. he travels more in the 185, and does alot of shorter field work in the husky.. If I were to buy another propeller driven aircraft, a 185 would be in the top3 aircraft for me.. fantastic airplane.. just like the husky.. so if you were to choose, you would have to define the type of flying you do.. both are extremely capable. ITs funny, there are really not too many downsides to either.. these two aircraft are my top 5 fav's.. no downside to either.

windsocks are cheating :).. yes they are great.. we learn to read the trees/water/smoke as bush flyers.. split flaps: that would induce a roll...we just lessen the flaps as the crosswinds increase, so we maintain enough airflow over the wings to have roll control and adverse control: thats what the ailerons are for.. they induce an adverse yaw which lessens the amount of rudder needed to hold it straight.. most ground loops are caused by releasing the aileron into the wind, and centering the rudder on touch down.. that comes back to basic crosswind training.. fly it until its stopped in a crosswind.. never take a gust for granted, Just ask mike patey, he is a fantastic pilot and it happens to the best of them.. been there done that.. I was lucky I flew out of my almost ground loop bunny hop without touching a wing tip or the prop, or smashing the gear on my sedan years ago.. thanks for the comments..

Great video. I have been flying taildraggers for yrs, always from grass fields,, just started pushing myself to get comfortable with paved strips. That is why I am checking out what others are doing on strong cross winds. My aircraft has NO flaps,, I am curious why you use flaps on windy days as I was taught many yrs ago not to use flaps on strong crosswind days as flaps present more wing area for the wind to weathercock you. Was this old school teaching??? I have been thinking of buying a Cessna 170 and it has flaps. Appreciate any feed back. I am a new subscriber as well. Thx from Canada

Hi Merlin.. good instincts.. as the wind gets stronger I reduce the flaps.. I have 30/20/10.. when the winds get gusty I use 10 or no flap.. If I have the distance to stop.. 20 in the husky provides adequate margin around 15mph winds or maybe more.. if its gusting 20 or more I use 10 or zero.. I learned in a sedan with no flaps.. but I dump them upon landing to glue the plane to the ground.. just keep that aileron in to the point where it feels too much almost.. This video was just a quick demo at a friends request on doing 15 mph winds in his husky.. but alot of people seemed to like it because I address the fundamentals.. speed, pitch, and adverse yaw control to keep the upwind wheel down.. thanks for the comments..goose

Thank you John.. I got slapped around by the stearman a few times, before this really sank in. I ran OFF the runway one time in my sedan by not keeping that adverse yaw in on a ratty day. Have flown with alot of instructors that dont emphasize this enough.. I try to keep enough aileron in that the plane is light on the down wind wheel and heavy on the upwind/tail wheel. and always in the back of my mind, the downwind brake can be "tapped" as a last attempt to straighten it if the wiggle begins.. one wiggle, brake, two wiggles, 2/3 power/go around.. my personal criteria. thanks for watching.. I will be doing more videos later this year.. we have had alot of things going outside flying due to covid.. more to follow.. hope to see everyone at OSH..

A little. But it was also very ratty and rough. The cameras stabilize that. I was getting a lot of gust and lifting. One time I overshot a lot and got fast. That’s what you probably saw. If it’s really gusty I set a min speed and keep it above that about half the gust above base. This was not a short field landing either. Just a roll on two point w big crosswind. So I didn’t care if I was a little fast. Thanks for the input.

@goose-F163 жыл бұрын
Most times when I see a ground loop, its because the pilot centered the stick or yoke, or put in opposite aileron at touch down, instead of staying into the wind with it.. I have seen experienced pilots do this, me included, it takes discipline to stay into the wind.. If you use the aileron as much as you are able without overdoing it and keep feeding it in, that adverse yaw reduces the amount of rudder by a long ways required. I had that pounded into my head at flight school, and by my tailwheel instructor.. he calls it the bicycle landing, mastering the upwind wheel. good luck out there.. Its even more important on asphalt.
@kwittnebel2 жыл бұрын
@@goose-F16 Just watched this again. So important. That tendency to center the ailerons just before I touch down is so real; then a gust hits and suddenly I am 20 feet right of centerline. Not to mention having the tail blown to leeward on roll-out. Landing on the upwind wheel needs to be the goal. Still working on it. Like you say, the plane is still flying, so don't stop flying it just because you are about to hit (or on) the ground! Keep flying!

Thanks for sharing this video - great content. I’m interested in your opinion, I fly a Husky (in the UK) and I use the short take-off method Aviat recommends in the check list - full flaps, breaks on, full power and then release the breaks. Why do you prefer the method in your video - what are the benefits? What is your short field take-off distance? I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks in advance. Please see my take-off kzbin.info/www/bejne/i163eqmjjMp9Y8k
@goose-F163 жыл бұрын
Great question. The aviat book procedure works fine. But in my opinion you can end up airborne at a high angle of attack with almost no roll control. I would not ever do that with a crosswind.. The aircraft gets airborne quickly with the procedure. No doubt.. But once you learn to time the flap pull, I can consistently match or closely match the takeoff distance.. But here is the difference.. The aircraft accelerates faster with the tail up, and when airborne, you get airborne with less angle of attack, and more control.. I have had sub 200 ft takeoffs, but more common is around 300 ft, but I get airborne with more energy.. Additionally I fly out of a field with trees at the ends.. I find that not dragging the tail, and having to pitch over, but popping it in the air and unloading slightly to accelerate results I a faster time to climb speed of 74mph, or 70 best angle to clear the trees.. as demonstrated in the video. However both systems work.. the aviat system is mechanical, the popping requires timing which you have to learn and practice.. we have lined planes up and measured off the distance and its negligible really. And finally on a rough runway, the pop trumps the High Aoa system because you stick the mains on the ground, absorb the bumps until its time to fly. And it works much better with a crosswind, because you need to glue the plane to the ground until flying time, and with the lower angle of attack airborne, your roll control is much better.. If you fly it enough, you will see that at High AOA and slow, your roll control is terrible.. all those things added up to me to learn to do both, but to publish the long standing cub method of popping flaps as an alternative idea for the husky, and that it can be done properly and safely. I have flown with Jeff Welch, who wrote Husky 101, and we have debated this a lot.. both work, but learning about the Aoa/roll limitations of the husky is needs to be expanded upon.. Remeber its not a contest to get airborne, its a contest to get to a safely controllable altitude in a min distance,.. Hope that helps..
