When the tail wheel touches the ground, bury the stick in your stomach. Pin that tail wheel to the ground (Drag the Tail - hence Taildragger) until the plane is stopped on the apron. Doing so applies aerodynamic download on the tail wheel, and increases its rolling resistance, keeping you straight without having to peddle on the rudder so much. Thanks for sharing mate, I am glad your lovely machine was ok. (nice approach BTW)

The moral of the story is to always taxi away like you meant to do that.

About a good a ground loop as you can have! Glad you didn't bend anything. Kitfox are great fun!

Ive got about 500 hours on tail draggers A number of things ive learned about landing tails 1. The landing is never over until the aircraft is locked in the hangar😊 2.you either land slower in the 3 point landing attitude (heavily depending on the wind speed and direction) or you wheel it on and gently allow the tail.to come down as you slow 3 at any stage you start to lose rudder control you must power up and either go around or if you have enough runway power up to regain control and then again allow the tail to slow come down. 4.also trying to land a biplane(tigermoth as example)in a heavy crosswind is a recipe for disaster But hey what would i know 25 years as a professional pilot and 10000+ hours Oh and no crash here For all tail wheel flyers There are those that have ground looped and those that will That wasnt a crash it was a very mild groundloop with no real consequences other than a slightly bruised ego Weve all been there and if you havent you will to varying degrees

Loved the steep approach, I was taught this way by an old pilot "always be within gliding distance of the runway when in the circuit". Sadly I rarely see nice steep approaches like this. I used to own/fly an emeraude G-ARDD. Lovely aircraft and I had a lot of fun in her.

With a taildragger, the aerobatics start when you touch the ground.

It happens. You have to dance a lot with taildraggers, keep the feet moving - especially light ones, they don't stop flying until they've stopped moving and even then you can't be 100% sure!

This is why I like doing 3 point landings on tail draggers. Airplane is stalled, not much speed on touchdown, more predictable than lowering the tail after landing. :) Thank you for posting the video.

Two kinds of taildragger pilots. Those that have and those that will. MY ground loop was in a 46 champ after tail wheel shimmy tossed both steering springs. Heel brakes kept me straight ALMOST long enough. Dropped my guard half a second and the rodeo started.😳 FORTUNATELY there was no damage to anything but my pride.😖

I've been in the weeds a few times due to crosswind challenges. Good learning experience. Looks like you tried to wheel land it. Lots of energy left when you do that. This means More energy to damage things. Wheel landings are fun to do but not necessary. Three point full stall landings guarantee minimum energy at touchdown. Also, the transition from two point two three point can be tricky. Lastly, keep that downwind wing down more and more when you roll out. Should be all the way by the time you stop.

He did not pull back the stick to maximum after groundcontact, an he holds the stick like a pencil. 20 years ago happend to me on a Supercap. Same mistakes. The landing ends with the stop of the plane. Thats a rule......

by the sound of it I think he might have had a problem with his tail wheel

Unstabilized approach, high and hot, touch down needed to be a lot further down the runway with a slower air/groundspeed. Its a tail dragger and you are still 'landing' those until you come to a complete standstill. You were lucky and got away with this one. Good that you put it up on Utube:)

Quick thinking by the pilot to engage locomotive drive during the ground loop recovery.

Most of my time is in taildraggers. Even though I have never had a ground loop, it can be an easy thing to have happen. You did just fine my friend.

If you look at the right seat rudder pedals you can see he is riding the left rudder. just before he touches down you can see the small reflection of the rudders on the right. You can see he is left foot heavy. At 1:15 you can barely see his left rudder input is slightly higher than right. Then again you can see a shimmer of the medal rudder pedal at 1:20. Place your cursor on that spot, and look at his knees. From there you can see his leg work and see he never quite fully deployed right rudder enough to compensate for his left drift until it was too late. He did input some right foot briefly and straightened the nose on the main wheels, but as soon as the tail dropped and the rudder became less effective, he let the left foot come up again until he looped. What I didn't really see was ANY real x wind correction with his stick work. At least from what we can see. Regardless, no big deal other than maybe hi ego, and the plane probably when on to fly again!!!

he had a really long time to deal with that ground loop and just didnt.... did that in a chief on my first paved runway landing thing headed left as soon as the tail touched shoved in the throttle and hit right rudder brought her back straight then settled the mains and let her come back down straight and rolled the speed off till the tail sank. then kept the stick back. saved my ass! otherwise we would have been in the back door of the local FBO. no 3 point landing that day !

Right rudder, RIGHT RUDDER! Ehhh, that wasn't a crash, just a technicality. Kitfoxes are tough as nails and just so fun to fly. I've personally witnessed a Kitfox bipe shed a prop blade seconds after rotation, do an immediate 180 and land downwind with a thud. Very bad recovery practice considering the pilot still had 500' of runway to his disposal but, aircraft was unscathed. Truly a badass little bird. Congrats on your build. If not homebuilt, congrats still on a solid purchase.

keep you stick in your belly soon as wheel touches ground.....taildragger!! Very nice approach and final btw!

Whooops ! Sounded like a choo choo train taxing back ..... 😁

I have owned a J3 Cub for almost two years. At first I would fly it only on dead calm days, but with more practice, I have flown it in some fairly high winds, like gusting to 16 knots. I usually do wheel landings, I believe you have more control and can see the runway better. The trouble comes in the transition to tail wheel down, things can get out of hand if you aren't very careful. My Cub has tried to exit the runway before I wanted to a few times but I kept it on. I have made at least one go around where if I had not, I would have taken out a runway light. I don't know about Kit Foxes, that looked pretty hairy and the wind didn't look that bad. Hope you didn't do any damage, keep at it don't let the plane fly you.

Jim New Well said.

To all asking about stick control on the ground. Untill the aircraft slows sufficiently the ailerons are effective. Once the tail wheel is firmly planted then it is rudder pedals only. None of us watching know what the winds were doing and on a light aircraft such as the Kit Fox..even a light breeze plays a part.

My first 200+ hours were on a Super Cub. I remember making many more practice landings than flying hours. Fortunately I flew from an aerodrome were landings were free, so it wasn't unusual when I practiced some 20 landings as part of a 1 hour solo training flight. I'm still part of the tail dragger pilot team that haven't made a ground loop.

Lots of grass around there.. I think I would opt for the grass especially if you have stock narrow gear. But you are ok and your plane was driven away.. all good

That was a cool maneuver. Don't know how the tower would feel about it, but you could switch direction really quick. I like it.

No crash, just a ground loop. Wind appears to be from the left, but I never saw him put his aileron into it so he landed with a drift. Can't tell what he was doing with the rudder, but from the sound of the tailwheel hopping I am guessing he was too slow on the rudder input as well. One other technique he never used was adding some throttle to correct his turn to the left. Pressing the right rudder peddle and giving the plane a burst of throttle would have put prop wash over the rudder and given it more authority and better directional control. He landed like a tricycle gear pilot does, he relaxed as soon as the gear was on the ground. You fly a taildragger all the way to the tie down ropes.

@Archie Bunker at what point in the video do you see a windsock?

Not a bad loop, and I see the wing didn't hit the ground. Good on you. It's easy to do. I built a Kitox IV-1200, and the factory gear, aside from being too narrow and with the extremely tight bungees, had NO damping effect except the tires. Turns out it was also warped from the factory and was severely toed-in. I ground-looped it one time, and after checking the toe-in, decided to buy a Grove gear. It was much wider and had 5-6 inches of "give." After flying the original gear, it seemed like it had auto-land. Consider that, and your life will be good.

OK - thanks. My mistake. The best advice I ever received was that you land a taildragger exactly like a nosewheel. On both, you fix any tendency to turn sideways immediately. On the nosewheel, it won't ground loop you if you get out of configuration, which is why nosewheel pilots are often not careful about it and it transfers to their tailwheel flying. In any event, nice airplane and video. Enjoy!

Richard Bach of “Jonathon Livingston Seagull” fame. Flew late 1950 Jet aircraft, etc. If my memory is correct, he bought a taildragger after leaving military service... and ground looped his first landing. So...you’re in good aviation company. I’ve flown a couple of larger taildragger airplanes with lockable tail wheels. They worked great. But I can’t honestly say I know about their disadvantages in small airplanes. There must be some or they all would have lockable tail wheels. Any one who knows, please enlighten me.

Man that thing corners pretty good.

Any landing you can walk away from is a fantastic landing. 2 types of tail dragger pilots - those that have and those that still going to. Same applies to stock cars and race cars but about the wall.

I know these aircraft have had a problem with one of the bolts breaking in the tail wheel steering mechanism, so I wonder is this is one of those events?

Don’t feel bad. That happened to me in an Aeronca once when the tail came unlocked.

Kit fox is prone to ground loops,, proper stick input was not applied and rudder and brakes must be very closely monitored to hopefully stop a ground loop in any aircraft especially a Kitfox. Glad that there didn’t appear to be any damage to the aircraft.

Taildraggers need massive amounts of small tap dancing on the rudders while waiting for the tail to come down. The idea is to prevent a ground loop from too much rudder in one direction. Once tail is down, full back stick and keep dancing. Even worse in x winds.

@@stephenraustin Some aircraft just won't 3 point. I flew a type in which the main wing reached the stall angle when it reached the 3 point attitude. I found the active rudder movements were the only way to keep it straight on the ground. It always had to be wheeled on. But whether u 3 point or wheel on, rudder activity is the key.

Wheel it on, check your stick forward holding the tail up, keep it razor straight. When your tail starts dropping, balance with brakes and let the tail down, all the while bleeding off energy, this keeps your main wing at a neutral angle of attack. Way more control, no “P factor” trying to put the tail down early keeping weight on your mains for braking.👍👍

I was taught during a wheel landing to keep a tail up as long as possible, then when the tail finally touches the ground, pull the stick all the way back. And take little stabs at the rudder pedals for correction. Don't hold a rudder pedal until you feel it move. This works for me.

The most dangerous point of the roll out is the point at which your speed is too low for rudder authority but your tailwheel isn't on the ground yet. We pick up wrecked planes from all sorts of wheel landing proponents, lol. Wheel landings are for pilots that are afraid to land slow.

What was he doing with the stick? You can’t leave it neutral. Pull it back into your stomach so the tailwheel is planted, then stay active on the rudder pedals all the way to the moment you’re stopped.

You could almost see it right away when he landed. He was not coordinated and lacked rudder input to keep the aircraft center. Brakes can assist in eliminating the start of a ground loop but you must be quick and those models with heel brakes make it even more challenging. Ah well, lessons learned and both likely went on to fly again.

Been there done that. You can say what you want about the design but that is the way they were built. Mine was not enough hours on the stick. I ground looped a citabria not fun. If you are proficient in a tail dragger you have my respect. Better bush planes. I miss flying so damn expensive.

ravenhhca if he was skidding the other direction, the torque from a shot of power could've helped him correct.

Airspeed is nearly bled off when the tail starts to move right. So, comments about landing too fast are wrong. Once tail begins to move laterally, the CG begins to move from where it should be, between and rear of mains, to forward and to one side of mains. Aircraft then pirouettes on the mains because CG is moving out front of the mains and to one side. This forward CG swings the tail opposite of where the CG has moved in the front. So, in this G-loop, the CG is moving forward of the mains in counter clockwise motion, to the left. The CG pulls the tail around with the mains as center of fulcrum, getting up on one leg as CG actually moves up as loop speed increases. Like an ice skater increasing spin by moving arms up. Stick is not back, can't see the rudder movement. Thinking need to keep full back on stick, right rudder, neutral ailerons. Keep working the rudder to keep the CG centered and aft of the mains. Nice video, good teacher.

You have to be very quick on the rudder with tail draggers. Take offs not easy - I let my feet twitch back and forth, then, full power. Just let your body do it. No time to think. Eyes way forward. I always do a 3 point landing, letting the plane plop down after holding her a few feet off the ground. Can also "fly behind the curve".....lots of power, just inches above the ground, nose high, the plane stalled but the power keeping you up. Then cut power and land immediately. CAVU skies!

Thanks for posting. A good lesson

Wouldn’t be the first tail dragger doing a quick 360 after what looked like a pretty nice touchdown Remember: rudder is your best friend in these - whilst a tricycle undercarriage in like a Cessna172 forgives lazy feet, a tail dragger will teach you what your feet are there for 👍🏻😊

I remember being asked by my passenger "Did we crash?" after a foot-high bounce in a Jodel. Comes to show that all my previous landings with that person, must have been quite smooth. I thought "Next time I will show you how a real bounce feels, with teeth fillings falling out.". Some people do ground loops, for fun, as long as the landing gear can take it.

You make a good point , and many have come unstuck with tail wheel problems , some power , stick forward to regain authority to effectively get stable in 2 point , time to breath, then power slowly off as stick progresses forward will bring you to min speed tail wheel contact , keep directional authority and bring the pole hard back one tail wheel touches .

As someone already commented it's obvious that the tail wheel was the culprit. Soon as it hits, you hear it, the plane loops.

This boy needs to learn the tail dragger two step and what the rudder pedals are for lol.

1,000th sub, glad it’s all okay

I didn't see the pilot suck the stick back to plant the tailwheel----that would have given him steering authority. With the tailwheel off the runway (or lightly touching it) the rudder doesn't have prop blast nor enough air blowing over it to maintain centerline direction alone.

Stick back stick back!

Why is he trying to steer with the stick on the ground? That's what the pedals are for.

I am an "ex" kitfox owner.... lots of comments about using the "rudder".... no mention of using the wheel brakes - which is essential to "back uo" the rudder as the airspeed bleeds off during the roll-out.

I could not keep my eyes off the way he is holding the throttle like a potato. I was taught from beginning to keep the forefinger on the throttle shaft at the firewall. Then you can feel even slight movements. That was wierd.

His speed was all over the place on final. Slowly decrease speed on final until your just above stall over the numbers.

Constructive criticism from an aged tail wheel pilot. Look at your airspeed as you cross the numbers and the resultant float once over the runway. Your final approach is flown to fast, to high for such a light and sensitive airplane. Tighten up your pattern, keep your airspeed at stall plus 10%. Once the mains touch, keep the ailerons and rudder into the wind if you’re in a crosswind ... no matter how slight.

@Tom-tk3du
