Flying a taildragger has made me a better and more satisfied pilot. It also means that I can afford to fly, as a lot of self maintained permit aircraft are tailwheel, and of course most of the WW2 fighters should I ever get a chance to fly one. Not flown a Tiger Moth except for a demo flight but have had the fun of taxying without brakes and steerable tailwheel, sometimes with a wing walker, when flying the classic Jodel D9. That use to cost me around £10 per hour just a couple of years ago.
