it would simply rotate over on the left wheel and ground loop
P-factor if I remember correctly. Still, that plane must have been spooky flying over populated areas and cities. Ah, Merican ingenuity at its best. I would have love to buzz some folks in that thing. LOL! Heh-heh. It resides in a mesuem of aviation, a true wonder. I think only 2 companies made model kits for it, shame, its a freaky bird.
