Hi Smiley.

Talk to Donovan O Grady. 078 553....6989. He has the number of Koala Mike at Heidelberg. He might be able to help.

I don't think Mike is rated on a taildragger. He has a Koala Gazelle (tricycle gear)
I would have done it if I was rated on the taildragger......but I also only have a tricycle gear rating for the Koala :(
Airspeed, altitude, or brains....you always need at least two

Mike doesn't have a rating for the small wheel.
Your best bet would be Mark Wheeler.

Yup....unfortunately had to de-rigg her for the journey home.

But she is now safely in Springs, and now I can start to get her back to perfect condition! (^^)
