I just read a post about a Kadet Senior "Tail Dragger". It's a beautiful airplane and I am considering getting one for the same reason at the poster, to use as a relaxing Sunday Flyer. But I don't know if I want to convert it to a tail dragger. I know from experience that my tricycle gear airplanes handle MUCH better on the ground than my tail draggers. I also realize that the nose gear causes more drag on a trike, but that shouldn't really matter with a plane like the Kadet Sr. Other than trainers, it seems that most of the airplanes I see at the field are tail draggers. Why do most people prefer the conventional gear over the trikes?
