Default One, big sh*t-eating grin...!

John,

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


You still don't get Bob's point, I'm afraid. The point is: How would the
air and the plane "know" that it's a taildragger, once the plane is flying?
And thusly, how would the plane "know" to behave differently in the air
because it has a different wheel (!) configuration?
