F.E. Potts - Bush Flying

[7gcbc]

Anyone here (I'm sure) heard of this guy ?

I read his book years ago, great stuff, and it still rings true, mostly supercub stuff, but applicable to any tailwheel in "ALA"s or paddocks.

Also, is anyone here "Handed" , ie preferring a left slip, or a right slip ? FYI, I'm really happy doing lefts, but occasionally mis-judge rights [dependiing on the xwind] and if given a choice I'll always prefer a left Xwind?

cheers

Prefer the lefts myself, but that's because of
(1) doing them mostly in a 182 and I'm already on that side.
(2) standard pattern being left handed, there are more left turns
(3) throwing out jumpers, I just always descend turning to the left.
(4) I only ever put gas in the right hand tank :}

Just kidding about the last one
