I fly 205's so it must be about the same technique. I shall have to try that one next time I'm out. I always had the feeling that they don't like tailwinds at all especially in ground effect with a light load and lots of fuel, so I try to avoid them rather than stuffing the tail in.
Is it specific to slinging and OGE?
