I'll tell you one thing about the stunt. You don't want to have a brake

The cub guys do this all the time. It is irrelevant if the wheels are
turning or not, some will, some won't. Depends on the size of the tire.

I told Des I wouldn't do this on a bet. If the engine even sputters and that
tire digs in, it's all over but the shouting. But I agree with you that this
stunt is old hat really. The bush guys are familiar with it and as you say,
there are pilots doing it now and have done it before.
I just wouldn't have been one of them. :-)
