In this weeks RV Builders Hotline there is a link to a video regarding a UK plane that tipped over. In the video (which is not of the actual tip over flight) you can see that the pilot was not holding the stick back on taxi or keeping the front wheel off the ground during the take off roll. These techniques were the first thing that Mike Seager taught me. If this guy did not practice the correct technique on take off then what was his landing technique like? I know that the rough field could have caused the problem but not doing proper aircraft control is not going to help!
