Roy Williams, owner of Airframe Components learns wheel landings in the 180/185 Skywagon from Leigh Smith, owner of Specialty Flight Training and a captain for a major airline.
This is a 3-part series of videos about wheel landings:
1. Roy and Leigh in the hangar discussing details of how to wheel land a Cessna Skywagon.
2. Roy and Leigh in the hangar raising the tail of the aircraft to show how much propeller clearance remains.
3. Roy and Leigh in flight with audio of Leigh “talking through” the maneuver while Roy manipulates the controls in the Skywagon. Both grass and airport landings are covered.
Leigh owns and operates a Cessna 195 from his 950' home strip in Knox, Indiana. To learn more about Leigh and Specialty Flight Training, visit his website www.techflying.com.

Of all the tail draggers ive ever flown The 185 was by far the easiest to land. Loved every minute of flying it!!

Iam jerry Ogstad and live in Idaho 81 years old and have 2000 hrs in a 180 and a 185 flew in the Idaho back country Loved it this is a good teaching I dont fly any more got to old God bless thies men stay safe

I use the same method when flying my R/C model tail draggers.

I must clarify the flap issue. Most all landings I use 40 degrees. But in 90 degree crosswinds, wind directly at the wing tip I don’t recommend it. A wind from the nose to 45 degrees use any flap you want. 20 knot wind at 90 degree to the nose, be careful, recommend no flap. The great thing about flying is their is more than one way to do things, but if your in the repair shop your doing something wrong.😊

Too bad the 180 doesnt have a stick.

@loafman99 Год назад

This is not great advice. Here’s a hint: Flaps 40 is your friend on ALL wheel landings. Trim a bit nose up at flaps 40 and relax back pressure at touchdown. There’s never a need to push the yoke forward, the drag at touchdown should be enough. The added nose down attitude at touchdown from flaps 40 will stick it every time and no tendency to PIO because AOA stays negative as the tail comes up on its own. The only thing I agreed with is get all the aileron in as you slow down. I’ve landed in every wind condition from calm to gusting to 45 knots and the only issue flaps 40 might give someone is if they trim for too slow a speed and then are forced to go around. Also avoid strong x-wind from the left for obvious reasons especially with the big block engine conversions.

Sorry. Incorrect.

@Mtnhiker56 2 месяца назад

Also, big block conversions do not affect aerodynamics and proper pilot techniques. On downwind sometime pull the mixture...the aircraft does not care what engine is hanging on the mounts...it responds to proper pilot control input.
