If you had ever flown a tailwheel with steering and had both springs come
off when you are landing you would have n question of whether you need them
or not. Get a good castering steerable tailwheel and you will be glad you

I have decided to start on a backcountry airplane and am going out of the
KR2 business. I have a KR2 partly built, a KR2S partly built with enough
parts to finish including a Revmaster engine, except prop and an almost
complete KR2S with a New built WW Corvair that is beautiful and open to all

You can have it both ways by buying a "breakaway" steerable tailwheel. The
