Brief Description:  Removal of Tricycle Landing Gear

Made the decision to convert the airplane from a tricycle gear configuration to a conventional configuration (or froma nose-dragger to a tail-dragger).

The conventional gear offers more usefulness to me over the life of the plane. Landing on grass strips will be much less of an issue. Plus, if I ever have to make a forced landing off-field, I think the chances are better of staying upright with conventional gear.
