In all the excitement, I didn't have the opportunity to ask what type of

tonight, I
*believe* the aircraft was a Stinson 108-3.

You pilots who have mastered these light taildraggers have my sincerest
respect.

*I* wouldn't classify a Stationwagon as a "light taildragger"...

It is a light taildragger. Think B17, DC3, etc. as heavy. A 108 will get
tossed around at will by wind and turbulence.
