When running cable on a tower I’ll label the box I’m pulling from and the tower end of the cable terminated. I’ll label before it’s terminated. I’ll need to see what size I’m using. It is just like heat shrink. It will fully encompass the cable. They work really well. I thought I had some pictures

Ken, I tried to watch their video to see how that works, I am not sure if it’s still flat tape that you stick to itself then shrink it or a tube like we are used to? I had the same concern you did about making sure it’s on any cable prior to termination. Being able to wrap it

Those crosswind videos are always using a camera angle that seems to enhance the apparent angle. The main thing is that for big aircraft is that you can not slip the aircraft. The wings and engines will scrape the ground if you slip them. Small, especially high wing aircraft can be landed
