The two most fun aeroplanes in my logbook - a BAe Hawk and Scottish Aviation Bulldog both had a training wheel at the front. Close behind, the Chipmunk and Stinson Voyager both have a tailwheel.
Bulldog better than a Chipmunk? That's heresy! I must agree with you on the Hawk though, the most fun jet I've ever flown.

Dan - Whilst I don't recall such an unequivocal opinion when you flew the Z242L
Aaah - I think I know who you are! Yes, the 242 was the best of the JEFTS candidates - the only one which had military trainer characteristics. Very much like the Dog, but with better handling.
