My tailwheel experience comes from flying a 45HP Rotax 447 engined Mini-Max R1600. My buddy passed away and his wife asked me to sell the airplane. I had to move it from its Homebase airport to Mesquite Metro Airport (KHQZ) in Dallas. That was one hell of an adventure. Thank God that HKQZ has a 6000 ft X 150ft wide runway... I was all over the place but eventually got it stopped. I am super ready for my KR2 after that little venture... Flying Mini Max 1600R

In doing a soft field landing, ( But on a hard surface runway,) I scraped the tail tie down ring before the mains touched down. Port Columbus International Airport, 1978.
