Other than the 'holier than thou' aspects of taildraggers and their
pilots, what are their real advantages? Has it to do with prop
clearance on unimproved fields, or fatter mains being better in that
same environment? Does anyone know if, with the same level of
experience pilots, they have a better or worse accident record when
compared to airplanes of the same general size that have the tailwheel
under the engine?

Less weight and drag would be another plus.





A bit like your pointy head.

there are tail draggers still in operation?
i thought everyone put the third wheel in front nowadays

if a nose up profile on the ground is such an advantage
why not just lengthen the front strut
