Two Landing Lights / Wigwag
Posted: Mon Nov 27, 2017 11:25 pm
A locally based corporate pilot flew his tricked out C 185 down the runway at about 25 ft Alt, possibly 90 MPH.
Pulled up at end of runway, perhaps went to alt of 250-300 ft. Did a chandelle and now he is coming back down to
end of runway. His landing lights are in the lower portion of cowl and alternately flash off and on. I've heard the term wigwag.
I was at the side of the runway halfway down. Obviously in position to get an eyeful.
Mesmerized.
I like it I want it.
How many of our members have this on a C170?
