Default RE: Tail Draggers

The reason I asked the question is that we see posts where guys are changing trikes to tail draggers and I'm wondering why. I don't recall ever seeing a post where someone did it the other way. Like Ken, I pesonally prefer the appearance of trikes as they sit on the ground and don't really see the advantage of tail draggers other than they are easier to build. I kind of had the idea in the back of my mind that maybe some guys prefer tail draggers because they are more of a challenge to get off the ground and we enjoy a challenge. It is true that setting up that nose wheel and keeping it where it belongs can be a pain in the butt at times. I don't know, but I like both.
