Spitmunk QFI summarised his advice to me as 'taxing in a strng following wind? Move the stick in the opposite sense to the throttle." Thottle closed=stick fwd (no sig prop wash, counters risk of tailwind getting under rainsed elevator). Throttle open = stick back to allow prop wash to press tail down, not up.

Seemed OK logic!
