Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: make sure your tailwheel steering springs are secure....The first thing told to me by two tail wheel gurus during my tailwheel checkoutwas"During pre-flight look at the tail wheel springs. Make sure they are preloadedwith no slack." then both related accidents or near accidents due to loose/brokentail wheel springs. First make sure you know what you are looking for. As a student pilot I was taught to look the engine over. I had no idea what I waslooking at. But I looked. During my first Owner hindered annual (Cessna 150)I learned a great deal about what to look for. Blue Skies,Steve D----- Original Message -----
