Testing the tail Slide for Cessnas, worked real nice, did some high angle of attack take offs and landings and worked nicely as it slides smoothly and does not dig at all.
Looks cool too.

I wonder if it would work a little better with a wheel back there instead of a skid.

:lol:

How much does it weigh?

Paging Del L.... thoughts on the structural impact of the tail strike in the vid?

Cool toy but makes me wonder how that might affect the airframe over time.

The 182 clearly lacks elevator authority.

Yes when trying to land at 40 MPH.
I did those take offs and landings on purpose as slow as possible and high angle of attack to test the tail slide.
