So having just completed a "conventional gear" rating, i can tell you a felt like a child learning to walk all over again...(i mean even just how to taxi!!) if the wind is anything more than a soft zephyr and straight down the runway i'm still sweating bullets landing the cub. I really cannot understand anybody who can just get in a tail dragger with no instruction and go with out a prang.

I came very close to having the cub swap ends on me and that's with an appropriate adult on board.

I have to say it has improved my tricycle landings immeasurably
