I did have the occasional tailwheel first landing in the L4 with the 65hp engine but I put that down to bad driving and being too slow at the time causing the tail feathers to run out of lift before the mainplane. Normally I had full aft stick on for a 3 pointer at 45 mph. This is with my chunky (200lbs) self in the BACK seat cos it was a Cub rather than a Super Cub.
