Скачать или смотреть 29" Alaskan Bush Wheels on a RANS S-21 Outbound?!

The Backcountry Bogey may earn a bit more "strip cred" with proper Bush Wheels...29" to be exact. The ACTUAL benefits are better landing performance, prop clearance, and drag (yes, drag). On short final to a 600' backcountry strip, slowing this plane down can be a challenge. And with an 1,800 pound max gross weight, the Airstreaks wouldn't cut it (1,700lbs max). Is the cost, weight and top end drag penalty worth it? Time will tell. But if you can't tell, I LOVE THE WAY THEY LOOK!

We replace the 8.50 (~22") Aero Classic tubeless tires that came in the RANS S-21 taildragger kit with the 29" Classic Tread Alaskan Bush Wheels from Airframes Alaska. I mount them on the kit-provided MATCO 6" wheels stopped by the MATCO dual piston brakes.
