I will be even more blunt and say that those that get the "A: model are either too lazy to get the training or lack the skills to master a tailwheel aircraft. Sadly if this is indeed the case then in all likelihood they also lack the skills to fly the nose dragger properly. Having flown both, the taildragger is, in my opinion, superior and also a tad faster.
Just saying .....
Hmm, JM is an experienced commercial Pilot.
