- Watch my first flight in the Super Decathlon to get my Tailwheel Endorsement!
This plane was a dream to fly- it's available for rent out of High Sierra Pilots in KMEV. We flew to Alpine and up the Carson River at 200' AGL after doing some maneuvers like steep turns, power off/on stalls as well as the falling leaf stall.

Stick and rudder taildragger is by far the most fun. Makes you feel like you''re a pilot from the beginning of aviation. That Super D deserved to be flown rubber side up for a bit.
Glad I found your channel. It’s fun watching you fly the valley where we live.
I’ve got to fly the former Patty Wagstaff Super Decathlon and got my Tailwheel experience in flying for the first time a Piper Super Cruiser from the back seat and now I can’t get enough of flying Taildraggers
Flying the Super Decathlon was some of the best times I had during flight school. Did my tailwheel in a Super Cub, then aerobatics in the Decathlon.
Hayley, this was so much fun for me, I can only imagine what it was like for you! Such a great aircraft to do tail wheel work in. Dropping down and following the river, you could have done that all day and I’d still be watching. The excitement on your face was over the top and the music during that sequence (life is a highway), perfect! Thanks for taking me along!
I’m so jealous! I was learning how to fly in a super decathlon 20 years ago. Then my instructor got hired off by the industry as did my other two instructors - hence my long reprieve. But - hey I’m back at it in August and cross my fingers will someday fly in a super decathlon again - maybe even learn some acrobatics. Thanks for sharing Haley. You are so inspiring.
Fun learning the way a tail wheel responds to the control input. Thanks for sharing.
I just flew that section of river from Markleeville back to town on Saturday. There were some rafters that got a pretty good look at the dirty belly of my plane! Good times. I need to get my tailwheel endorsement here soon!
Nice video. Wish you showed cameras outside the airplane. Don’t mind the occasional look at the pilots reaction, but outside more would’ve been nice.
Hello from Minnesota! Fun episode!
Looks like fun, thanks.
Also working on my tailwheel in a Super Dec and I love it!
congratulations, looks the same as my Super D, N121WM enjoy
Nice flying. Just got signed off with my endorsement in the same plane! Are you going to do aerobatics training next?
Superb 👌
Fun, thanks.
the key to flying a tail dragger: happy feet !! You'll figure it out.
nice video😀😀
awesome miss my taildragger
The closest you can get to flying a squirrel.🤣
Wingsuit
@@Jay_Sullivan In a wingsuit, you are the squirrel. Like in Ice Age. 😧
