Cessna made just that and installed it on the 190/195 as an option it was called crosswind gear. Look at the parts catalog. I think you will find it to be as absurd as you imagine it.
This video helped me pass my instrument checkride yesterday! I was about to bust an altitude when I told my DPE I thought I saw a tail wheel V tail at 3 o’clock. This gave me time to fix my altitude and he was so excited at the chance to see such a doubly awesome plane that he didn’t even think to ask why I was looking out the windows while under the hood!
Yep.... A Mooney that would fit a whole pilot would have made me look at them a little closer. Absolutely need that tailwheel conversion for my Bonanza!!
Tail dragger bonanza!!! HAAAaaaaa!!!!! Thanks for my weekly dose of laughter!!!! Nice job incorporating Mike Patey and a tow plane!!!! Have a stellar day!!!!
How about inverse-CAPS? If while skydiving and something goes bad while under canopy,, you pull a red handle and an airplane pops out and you fly away from the situation?
The PLANE-DOZER- open up the outback to those of us that can't retract up those big tires. Can you show me a concept of this? You did great with those other aircraft.
There are so many GA accidents of CFIT. I don't know why they don't just make planes out of that superball material so they just bounce when hitting trees or mountains.
Cirrus and Garmin need to develop an auto- traffic pattern flying product so the Cirrus can push a button if they don’t want to think about a traffic pattern entry.
Two words: Airplane Trailer!!! Not a trailer to haul your airplane around, but a trailer you hook up to your tail tie down. It should have wings to support the weight of the luggage that won’t fit in your airplane or small children who won’t mind….
I want to see a strutless, pt6, high wing, tail wheel v tail. Great clearance for back country flying! It would also be a great tow plane since the boom wouldn't have to clear the rudder. Need to see both versions. You could also add retractable inflatable floats. They could be filled with helium from pressurized bladders it the wings for shorter takeoffs and landings, making it amphibious!
I'm fairly certain you can't shoot with heat seeking missles backwards because the exhaust from your engine would confuse it? There are missles that can be fired at a target behind you, you need a helmet mounted cueing system that can fire at anything the pilot can see and lock up in his visor.
The conveyor belt landing gear coupled with your wing mounted wind sock would be the disruption the industry needs. Just need a water to hydrogen converter for fuel and your plane could take off/land anywhere AND eat clouds for fuel!! 😬
You missed the 737 with tundra tires. You never know when you'll need to make 187 people look completely ridiculous and humiliated at the same time. The 737-800 with tundra tires would be the perfect answer. Plus, the pilots could make RUclips videos of themselves landing a 737 on a sand bar.
How about a passenger aircraft where everyone can have a go at flying. Every seat has a full spectrum of the important flight controls, yoke, pedals, throttle etc. It's very selfish when pilots get to have all the fun.
When a Grumman F-14 Tomcat can have swing wings why Grumman Tiger Cheetah or Traveler can't have them too? Why is military always treated better than us?
How about downward ejection seats on passenger aircraft. Then when you fly over the persons house they can eject and be at home without needing to land. Obviously you need to have aerial refueling.
I am Joe the mechanic. I'm willing to take a serious look at the taildragger V-Tail project if anyone wants to fund it. AP/IA Private pilot. It doesn't have to fly but I think that deserves to exist.
It might not be a good thing but we won't know until we try. Changing the gear around on a Bonanza is not a problem. Controllability and erosion damage to the already questionable tail surfaces are both obstacles. If you want RG I would look into Art Scholl's Super Chipmunk. That was a substantial airplane with functional taildragger RG.
How about a bush 747? Need some real big, I MEAN REAL BIG TIRES! But you could fly 3-400 of your closest friends to Idaho and land on a mountain side and party.
How about a C172 with JATO packs at the tip of the wings pointing down? Instant VTOL. Or Take off at least. Rocket up to altitude, then add full prop power to fly forward.
Hey Bryan with a why? I designed a paralleloplane a few years back. It's basically two Boeing 767's connected by a central wing & tail plane. Each has a single outer wing. Similar to a P38 Lighting. The boffins tell me it won't fly, but I'm sure that your genius mind will find a solution to make it work.
I was pretty certain you were going to show the towable Travel Trailer I KNOW you have designed! I mean the Airstream has the word AIR in the danged name.. it was MEANT to fly!
Ok, this is over the top, like the Guppy 😂🤣. We need way more engineers to think outside the box like this! This is too much! Thanks for another Great video!
Hey I have an idea- car manufactures use trucks to carry multiple cars to a destination. Why can't we have a large aircraft that's hollow on the inside where smaller AC can fly around in them, protecting them from the hazards of wx and ATC? Or, stay with me, it could be like a giant bomb bay and when the carrier AC gets close to target, it drops the smaller AC, allowing them to start engines mid-air or just glide down.
Make a plane that has a parachute that way when the fan stop cooling the pilot you won’t fall like a brick and you don’t have to worry about where you land!
Bryan, how about an airplane that flies on aerial rails, like a train but also like a plane ? No more lateral or vertical navigation worries, just turn the engine on to go and turn it off at your destination after a smooth, three-dimensional flight at any altitude A much safer way to do aerobatics as well, because the Skytrain's safety rails will do away with the impacting into the ground out of control problem.
My suggestions: For the budget airlines: Fixed gear 737's and A320's. Would reduce operational costs and allow them to charge even lower fares. For GA: An STC that would allow installing a PT6 in a Skyhawk or Cherokee so everyone will stop laughing at us for being slow. To address the pilot shortage: A civilian version of the V22 Osprey so those retired pilots can actually use their military hours towards something once they're out.
All great ideas! Someone needs to set up an R&D GoFundMe so I can yell, “Take my money!” Granted, I don’t have any money to take, but it would be a cool dramatic moment. 🤔
I've always thought a tail wheel 747 would bring back the feel of the days of the dc3 airliners. Really all planes should be tailwheels so the people who brag about flying wouldn't feel special
The tow plane would be fantastic! I'm always so nervous about the engine quitting while flying and just getting stuck in the sky. With a tow plane, a person could get a tow back down to an airport! Why doesn't that exist?
Forget people turning you in to the FAA/FSDO . . . I have a MMPI (The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory) test/questioner for you to fill out - HA!
Slipstream….the ability of a plane to deploy a mock-up of a semi truck in front of it to increase fuel efficiency and likely higher airspeeds (if you can get the mock-up to drive faster)
And what's this about so called GA multi-engine piston aircraft? All them have only two engines, why not add a couple of more of them to help out with that situation, say 3 or 4?
We need an Ultralight for really big guys. My brother is 6 foot 8 inches and almost 400 pounds and he really wants an ultralight but I don't think it can be done.
Hmmm, right now the most elusive plane out there is an affordable trainer for new student pilots like me. Any inventive takers out there? Textron? Piper? Tecnam? Oh, um Cirrus (hahahahaha, nope).
Can we not have a transformer plane? Wings move forward and back for weight and balance and extend and retract for lift (added useful load). Seems like it would be perfect. Add pontoons that have kayaks inside. These are real questions. I thought I was the only one!!!😂 thanks for making me feel normal. Oh I fly a Mooney 👍🤣
I would totally go for a tailwheel Bonanza! 👍
- Martin (Bonanza Guru)
the first guy I thought of when he said smart with a good engineering mind was Martin Pauly!
🤣🤣🤣
What we need is an air-trailer for hauling extra gear.
A "Food Truck" airplane would be nice. It could fly in formation with the Coors Light airplane!
This right here. Forget flying to a $100 hamburger, the $100 hamburger will come to you!
What about an airplane that was ALL TAILWHEELS. No main gear, just TAILWHEELS. The pilots of them would be gods among men.
Cessna made just that and installed it on the 190/195 as an option it was called crosswind gear. Look at the parts catalog. I think you will find it to be as absurd as you imagine it.
It was said that RV Stewart figured out how to taxi it around sideways and such at the North Little Rock Airport.
This video helped me pass my instrument checkride yesterday! I was about to bust an altitude when I told my DPE I thought I saw a tail wheel V tail at 3 o’clock. This gave me time to fix my altitude and he was so excited at the chance to see such a doubly awesome plane that he didn’t even think to ask why I was looking out the windows while under the hood!
Home run on this one. The V-tail taildragger nearly floored me and then the Mooney Guppy finished me off.
Yep.... A Mooney that would fit a whole pilot would have made me look at them a little closer. Absolutely need that tailwheel conversion for my Bonanza!!
Tail dragger bonanza!!! HAAAaaaaa!!!!! Thanks for my weekly dose of laughter!!!! Nice job incorporating Mike Patey and a tow plane!!!! Have a stellar day!!!!

The rear-firing missile is actually an interesting idea.
Submarines had rear-firing torpedo tubes, so there's some merit to the idea.
I guess that's what the AIM-9X and Iris-T with thier high off bore sight capabilities are for😅
BrYan highlights Mooney capabilities, but the picture is of Martin Pauly’s Bonanza N70TB! 😂
A Globe Swift is basically a tail dragger Bonanza. Ok, it doesn't have the V tail and it only has two seats.
I think the treadmill idea would really give you a run for your money.
There are so many GA accidents of CFIT. I don't know why they don't just make planes out of that superball material so they just bounce when hitting trees or mountains.
Ohhhhh. Broken down Draco? Too soon?😂
" giving me numbers to call all the time....."
Cirrus and Garmin need to develop an auto- traffic pattern flying product so the Cirrus can push a button if they don’t want to think about a traffic pattern entry.
I want to know why someone has not yet invented a trailer that you tow behind your plane.
A STOL version for back country glamping. You could even take the kitchen sink.
I liked the Mooney Guppy..."Just attach any convenient air hose here, and blow up your plane to the size you need!"
How about a passenger plane that doesn't force economy passengers to cuddle for the entirety of the flight? :)

The Quad Comanche, if one is good and two is better, than FOUR!?
Putting your hands out the window in a Mooney? How did you not get sucked out, Bryan with a Y?
Since he had an arm out each side, his arms just got a lot longer, and acquired a permanent backwards bend...
He wasn't wearing the obligatory fire extinguisher strapped to his leg, so no suction.
Love the Vtail wheel😂, I’d would buy one for sure. 😊
I like the idea of the Tail-V Bonanza
I’m restoring a v-tail at the moment. Making it a tail dragged solves the aft- CofG problem ;-)
I'm fairly certain you can't shoot with heat seeking missles backwards because the exhaust from your engine would confuse it? There are missles that can be fired at a target behind you, you need a helmet mounted cueing system that can fire at anything the pilot can see and lock up in his visor.
Long, long ago, Clint Eastwood was in a movie called "Firefox", where he stole the latest Soviet fighter, which had rear-firing missles.
He had to think in Russian:
Где дозатор водки в этой штуке?
How about a GA airplane with folding wings so I can save wear and tear on my hangar?
The conveyor belt landing gear coupled with your wing mounted wind sock would be the disruption the industry needs. Just need a water to hydrogen converter for fuel and your plane could take off/land anywhere AND eat clouds for fuel!! 😬
A ups/FedEx airplane trailer to haul more packages
You forgot your Cirrus on floats... that would sell like hot cakes.
That Mooney had me on the floor 😂😂😂😂😂😂
How about a STOL Winnebago for back country fun?
Think how handy that would be at Oshkosh!
I’m a tail wheel master! (Also it’s true, we’re insufferable)

Why not at 747, a lot of those going to the scrapyards at the moment - and who wouldn't want to sit upstairs while landing on tundra!
How about a passenger aircraft where everyone can have a go at flying. Every seat has a full spectrum of the important flight controls, yoke, pedals, throttle etc. It's very selfish when pilots get to have all the fun.
"Alright! No one gets lunch, until we find out who put us into the flat-spin!"
Need one that brings it's own collapsible hanger where ever it goes.
We need you on the FFA, For sure you could fix them crazy dudes!
The Guppy + Mooney idea is brilliant and funny as hell. If I had been drinking milk I would have baptized my keyboard!
The Patey Brothers - "Hold our beers"
Rotflmmfao 🤣 these are hilarious especially the Mooney Guppy
When a Grumman F-14 Tomcat can have swing wings why Grumman Tiger Cheetah or Traveler can't have them too? Why is military always treated better than us?
Could you make a video about waiting for oil temp to come up before takeoff? I have no idea what to do while waiting.
I will add it to my list. That's kind of genius 😂😂😂
👍☑🎉 dats gonna be a good one! Go get me BrYan!
@@JustPlaneSilly Make sure you don't do it in a Diamond and you're accidentally waiting for the coolant temperature to come up.
LOL Oil? What oil? Somebody needs to do a little research because these are AIR COOLED engines!
@@Nokomis449 remind me never to fly with this guy, or get in a car with him, either.
You for got all about the dream lifter! The dream killer is the credit card slot that attached to all airplanes
Aviation design through the eyes of IT leadership; solutions looking for problems.
I'm not sure if Martin Pauly or Mike Patey are the guys for this, but maybe both could do it.
Feels like it has been forever!!!! Great Vid!
Brilliant Bryan! Maybe add in a Vans RV with fabric surfaces for quick duct tape repairs in the field. 😁
I, for one, would love to see you explain how an aircraft would take off from a treadmill! Seems like nobody understands this! 😂
How about downward ejection seats on passenger aircraft. Then when you fly over the persons house they can eject and be at home without needing to land. Obviously you need to have aerial refueling.

Greatness.
Thanks! I'm really proud of the thumbnail on this one. 😂
@@JustPlaneSilly I’m really proud of your computer farm.
Towing the Draco! 😂
Sounds like you need to call Mike Patey and talk to him about your aviation engineering needs!
To be honest a V tail Bonanza tail dragger would be pretty cool!

Sadly Draco was destroyed.

My favorite pilots are Cub pilots. How about a tail wheel bonanza with cub wings. That’s what they call a triple threat!
Make a plane that has a parachute that way when the fan stop cooling the pilot you won’t fall like a brick and you don’t have to worry about where you land!
Every Cirrus has a parachute.

We need the next generation in the evolution of the seaplane: the submarine plane.

For GA: An STC that would allow installing a PT6 in a Skyhawk or Cherokee so everyone will stop laughing at us for being slow.
To address the pilot shortage: A civilian version of the V22 Osprey so those retired pilots can actually use their military hours towards something once they're out.
Hey Brian, unfortunately in your intro, the guy is riding outside the plane. I'm going to have to report you to the FAA.
All great ideas! Someone needs to set up an R&D GoFundMe so I can yell, “Take my money!” Granted, I don’t have any money to take, but it would be a cool dramatic moment. 🤔
I can't even go there, BrYan. I have NO IDEA where, or even HOW, your mind goes to come up with this stuff. I'm most certainly not that good!
a airyplane that can follow and protect and support me. Like K.I.T.T of the knight rider. but a plane.
Would you fly through the windscreen of the treadmill plane when it stopped? This is a serious question.
I've always thought a tail wheel 747 would bring back the feel of the days of the dc3 airliners. Really all planes should be tailwheels so the people who brag about flying wouldn't feel special

Airplanes that fly under ground
Teslas have autopilot. Why don’t planes have autodriver?
We need a RV-14 with variable sweep wings and ejection seats
Slipstream….the ability of a plane to deploy a mock-up of a semi truck in front of it to increase fuel efficiency and likely higher airspeeds (if you can get the mock-up to drive faster)
I hope Mike Patey sees this video!
Aircraft that don't exist: A decent Grumman or a Comanche..... that's why BrYand (with a Y) flies them..... he likes the challenge.
I hope you and the whole great Xmas and new years.... I look forward to 2023.
Have you ever called for a tow truck? Good luck getting a tow plane to you in time! Now if you could deploy those hot air balloons while you wait...
Sheer brilliance, but as my mum would say "pie in the sky" ???

Get this - an airplane where instead of it being pulled by a propeller, the wing itself just rotates. Pretty crazy I know, probably will never happen
A paddle wheel airplane. GENIUS!!!!
