We should paint them all blue and put the instructor's seat on the
outside, next to the student.

On super windy days, one of the great things about the 2-33 is you
can get in it and stay on the ground and "fly" it just like Kirk says.
It's a real blast for early students...

What other aircraft have ONE wheel, so you can do this?

I've "flown" Blaniks on the ground on just the main wheel, while waiting
for the tow plane. For that matter I've done the same in the Janus.
