The threshold of immediate control
BY ROD MACHADO (From AOPA Pilot, August 2005.)



I have had at least two old-time tailwheel instructors teach me this and
both called it "yoking it in". Seemed like fairly large, rapid, elevator
excursions on the old Cessna 140 didn't make it bob at all. Worked well
and I use this technique, even in my glider (very small movements there
though).
