The 185 is a 300bhp tail dragger. It can be a handful on take off and landing (despite the tailwheel lock)
No tailwheel lock on any of the 185s I flew, agree with the handful on landing though,my regular mount bounced if you got it slightly wrong, exchanged for the one up the road because they borrowed ours while theirs was in maintainance and it took a while after before we could swap back - amazing - no bounce on landing - felt sorry for their pilot while he had ours!
