This Friday is my first lesson in a Supercub on skis, Northwoods Aviation in Cadillac MI. I think we're going to stay at the airport on the grass strip, which is snow-covered now, so I'm not worried about having to walk out from a remote location or bringing emergency survival equipment.
What can I expect for takeoffs and landings? Are ski takeoffs similar to wheel takeoffs, tail up a bit? Are ski landings more like wheel landings, three-point, or something else? I know there's no brakes, but I don't use brakes when landing on wheels either.
Thanks!
Anne.
