wrote: An old bush pilot told me they used really long wing tie downs to a single point and left the tail untied in high winds in Alaska. This allowed the aircraft to lift off and weathervane in high winds. The aircraft were staked out far enough apart that they wouldn't collide with each other. I'd be interested to know if anyone's actually witnessed that method. Did the old bush pilot start out by saying "now this ain't no bull****"? ================================================== == Del Rawlins-- Unofficial Bearhawk FAQ website: http://www.rawlinsbrothers.org/bhfaq/ Remove _kills_spammers_ to reply |
