Hi Ruedi,

Get rid of the old tail wheel. I did about 100 hrs on it and was scared of it.
The later wheel is much better. I find the spring action perfect on take off as
there is nearly no transition from ground to air.
As to landing, I am told by passengers that I land with the tail wheel first, I
never notice because I am concentrating on keeping it straight. If you do that
there is no bounce!
If you fit the new tail wheel see recent posts about mounting it.
