I am in the taxi phase of training myself to fly a KR2 stretch taildragger. My 
taxi speeds are around 30 kts. No matter what position the stick is in (forward 
or aft) the tail remains on the ground. I remember seeing some folks at the 
fly-in turning their aircraft 180 degrees by full power with no forward speed. 
I would have expected some movement upward of the tail by now. Doesn't even 
seem light on the tailwheel yet. 

When does the back end of this thing get going?
