Even if you’ve never flown a taildragger, you probably know what a “groundloop” is. If not, it’s a sudden loss of directional control on the ground that’s normally associated with taildraggers, which have their centers of gravity aft of the pivot point and so naturally want to swap ends on landing.
But can you groundloop a tricycle gear airplane too? Sure you can, and there’s a set of dangerous conditions under which it’s more likely to happen.
