dutchroll Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 Extract from the "Normal Procedures" section of the POH (which I wrote myself) from my radial taildragger: "WARNING - Forward visibility from the cockpit is poor. Exercise caution during taxi." Guessing she missed that bit in hers! 1

Camel Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 Tracy may be a lot like Amy, I read the book on Amy Johnson and she did bend her plane a few times, the funniest part of the book was her landings were referred to as arrivals. Amy is still my hero as she never gave up and fulfilled her dreams. I hope Tracy does do the trip, I think it great to see people take on an adventure, I would not have the guts to do what she wants to do. Good on her, hope she don't wreck too many more aircraft, LOL. 1 1

Yenn Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Should never have happened. That is about the first law of taildraggers, weave to see where you are going. 1
