A lot of high-powered taildraggers have this issue - and the remedy is opening the throttle a bit slower! Of course, if you've never flown a taildragger...
Thank god!!!! we were exempt from high x-winds in Alaska and Canada. But wait!!! we floaters were totally exempt from cross winds. Now as for the Bonanza... the beautifuel tall natural blond babe in the right seat blew the x-wind off the planet, while her boy friend blew wind out of his xxxx! Hey... maybe that's what accounted for the great shorth field performance in those gusty x-wind conditions.
