Why no hand propping a nose dragger for you?


I've done it a few times but found it very awkward, as the prop on,
say, a C-150 or 172 is much lower than the prop on a taildragger like
my T-Craft.

On the T-Craft turning it backwards was the standard way of clearing
it if it was flooded... but there was no impulse coupling nor vacuum
pump.
