And barnstormers.com is like the Craigslist. I wouldn’t especially call Luscombes nice planes. I’m not a fan of their stall characteristics or ground handling.

I wouldn’t especially call Luscombes nice planes. I’m not a fan of their stall characteristics or ground handling. A J-3 is the most expensive airplane in the group for its capabilities. You’re paying a lot for that “Piper Cub” name.
I think Taylorcrafts are a good bang-for-your-buck. I’m also partial to Citabrias.
I’ve flown about 20 types of small taildraggers, for whatever that’s worth.

- travisjungroth 6y agoNot really. I just think it's useful for people to know these opinions were formed by flying the airplanes, not reading Wikipedia.
- DrScump 6y agoI was referring to the classic "Real Aviators Fly Taildraggers" sticker.
- travisjungroth 6y agoOh, gotcha. Well, if you add in biplanes and high performance stuff the number is a bit higher.
