...and in terms of owning a taildragger (and hopefully this appies to those organisations renting 'em out) it's probably obvious, but maybe needs emphasising, that maintenance and correct setup of the tailwheel assembly is critical in terms of keeping the aeroplane's ground handling characteristics predictable.
On the Jodel I part owned for many years, the difference when we replaced a tired tailspring was marked. The change in angle when the tail was sitting on the ground greatly improved its responsiveness.
