Default RE: take-off with a taildragger

It's hard to say how long it will take. But what will happen is one day you'll go out and just take off and not even think twice about it. It just "sort of" happens. But I will also say that the level of butterflies also is directly proportional to how new the plane is. On new planes you get nervous every flight. But after you get a few hundred flights on a plane you don't feel that way any more. That's what I like to call my "throw around" plane. Planes like that are really fun to fly because you know them inside and out, you know exactly how they perform, and you really don't worry about it if you crash them. That's when planes get really fun to fly!!!!!
