The second answer is, the instructor was referring to controlling the
aircraft in flight. In a taildragger, you lead a turn with rudder

adding the aileron.

I don't know. I learned in a taildragger, I always lead with rudder
regardless of what I am flying.



Some aircraft need no rudder for turns up to about 30 degrees since the
controls are interconnected. The 180 and 182 are the same airplane so
they fly the same.
