Now instead of a car, let's substitute a Cessna 182 at half its rated load capacity.


1) What's indicated wind speed and direction?
2) Is the engine running? If so, at what rpm?
3) What's the diameter and pitch of the prop?
4) 230HP Continental or 235 Lycoming Turbo?
5) What's the coefficient of friction of the wheel bearings?
6) Is it tricycle gear or a tail dragger? I guess no floats or skis if it's on a conveyor?
7) If it's a tail dragger, is it a skid or a wheel?
8) Wheel pants or open?
9) Retractable gear or fixed?
10) Child seats or not?

No matter, they're all good - but I really, really like the old original '50s fat fuselage square rudder variants.
