It's not arrogance, it's physics and aerodynamics. When someone comes up with flight test data then I'll sing a different tune. High time bush pilots aren't immune from OWTs, infact they often propagate them. Henning's observations are bang on. Listen and learn my friend.
You should read the book. If you still think you're smarter and more experienced, then that is further confirmation of what I already suspect - that your brain activity matches your screen name. I'm sure the bush pilots would be very interested in Henning's results in the Ag plane he flew. The author I referenced did note that this technique had the potential to be significantly more valuable in the 180/185 than the Super Cub. I'd imagine aircraft type matters. So does the condition of the airstrip.
So where are your scientific test numbers disproving this method that professional pilots utilize? Have you ever heard the expression, "the more you know, the less you know". Well, I have a feeling you know everything. I'm curious, what type of flying do you do?

OK, happy new year everybody. The wife is suggesting it's time to get outta here.
