RE: Trainer plane fun
Yeah, trainers are big fun.
Try this if you fly from asphalt or close cut grass, or if you have big wheels on regular grass. Come in for a landing, land only on the mains and ride them the length of the field and take off again without touching the nose gear. Next, land only this time on one wheel and then the other etc. seeing how far you get on that one wheel. It takes good coordination of all controls. Do the same with a tail dragger not letting the tail wheel touch.
It's harder with a three channel plane but can be done, especially with the help of a cross wind for the one wheel landings.
