Tail Dragger training – Wheel Landing on pavement – Super Cub – POV flying
Watch in HD and you can read the panel! Ride a long for my most challenging tail wheel flying lesson. This is a solid lesson that I got a lot out of both flying and reviewing, so I am happy to share it. Wheel landing was definitely the most challenging part of the tail wheel conversion training – especially in a cross wind.
NOTE: this training flight was EDITED down from over an hour to under 20 minutes; Thus, there are missing details and possible lost context – PLEASE do not look at this as instruction but rather the start to a conversation that you can have with your instructor.
I have many “Flying Tail Dragger – Tips” already produced, and more to come; they’re numbered randomly because I have no idea how many there will be and what order of importance to assign them 🙂
Here are the direct links to some other Tail Wheel Flying videos that I’ve done, but please also check my channel incase I forget to update the links here in this description:

DISCLAIMER: I am a “weekend warrior” private pilot, I fly for fun with no intentions of going commercial.I have had my PPL for over 15 years, but still consider each flight a learning experience – I generally take detailed notes after each flight to remind myself what went well or what I could do to improve…. Having the GoPro cameras to record flights like this is invaluable. I find these self analysis videos very helpful in my constant quest to improve, and am happy to share.Feed back is invited; however, please keep it positive
