Large tailwheelers always seem to be wheeled on, whereas singles are 3-pointed. Maybe it's due to the less effective roll control at low speed on the bigger ones so they keep the speed up and wheel it on?
I had heard that the one aeroplane one should never try to 3-point is the Rapide, as it reaches stalling angle before it reaches 3-point attitude, and will drop a tapered wing at the stall.
