I recently purchased a delightful Cessna 140 and have begun my journey into flying tailwheel aircraft—what an adventure it's been so far!
In this landing, we do a wheel landing at Millville Airport on runway 32. As I turn to "final", you'll get a nice view of Millville Speedway!
Landing on pavement is traditionally seen as more challenging than grass, as pavement is less forgiving—any lateral motion during touchdown can lead to a swerve and potentially trigger a ground loop. However, the wide, open runways at Millville give me peace of mind and make landing here much easier than at smaller grass strips. It's the perfect spot for me to build my confidence!
The "Landing Singles" series highlights quick clips of individual landings, showcasing my progress and the invaluable guidance I received from my instructor during my descent. Enjoy!
