Let's move on

Agreed. Are there any other aircraft that you can steer on the ground
with
the yoke?

Just about every airplane use for primary instruction when taxied for the
first time by a new student (until the instructor shows them how to use
their feet :-))))

ROTFL! For sure...

But I honestly can't think of any other plane that have
yoke-ground-steering, can you, Dudley?

Cool! Basically a high-wing Ercoupe. It was even developed at the same
time (circa 1941)...and ended up being owned by a company in Lemars, Iowa,
of all places.

Thanks for that, Jim. Amazing what you can find on the internet.

I'll tell you the truth. I think the final count for me for types flown
was around 50. I have never flown anything, even experimental and
prototype single engine that steered on the ground with a yoke except
the Coupe.
Some of the big jets use a small "tiller wheel" within specific
parameters for taxiing but aside from one flight I made in a DC8 as a
guest of the airline's chief pilot (actually managed the approach and
landing at Fairbanks without bending it :-) the Ercoupe was the only one.
