All



I got plenty of feed back about favourite mono tires /tyres.

Most of you prefer McCreary Air Trac 7.00 - 6 x 6 ply 

and that will be also my choice.



Quite many of you pointed that by updating mono´s tire

it is even easier to handle when landing. Obviously it is

then possible to drink coffee same time...



Thank you, Raimo

Reimo,

Believe me, it will never be a "left-hand-job" to land a mono aircraft - after my opinion, it is every single time a job that demands your attention 101%  -  but what is better than a challenge? 

Fly safe.



Regards Gert

Dear Gert,

  

 It was a joke, my stupid humour. 

 When landing, concentration must  be always 100%.

 Also with Cessna, allways.

  

 Still, I have now over 100 Mono landings to

 all kind of runways with different weather  conditions.

 I just wonder the mono´s reputation which  is

  

 "very difficult to land"

 "ground looping is everybody´s destiny"

 "do not buy CS prop - you will break it  anyway"

 "impossible to land safely -must be converted to  trike"

 "practising beforehand  with other  `normal`taildraggers is a must"

  

 Cannot understand. It has been for me personally just a  pure joy.

 Maybe because before Europa I practised with mono  cycle.

  And the feeling "winning the challenge" gives a good  satisfaction.

  

 Just wonder who will be the first who converts trike to  mono?!!!



  

 Wishes, Raimo

  

 (I do know; writing like this I beg blood from my nose  and

 next time when landing I will maybe know what means  ground looping!)

Raimo

the thing that will catch you out is overconfidence. Never forget that 

all taildraggers are unforgiving of faulty or careless landing technique.

All airplanes are unforgiving of bad decisions also! As I know to my cost.
