Re: [Titanaircraft] Pushing/moving Tornado in-and-out

I've always pushed backwards by pressing down with one hand at the end
of the nose cone, about 6" back from the tip until the tailwheel lifts
and then I maneuver it on two wheels.

To push forwards, I lift by the top of the rudder until the nosewheel
contacts and use it to steer the nosewheel as I push forward.
