Rotation and type of landing gear

IMHO rotation applies equally to aircrafts with 'conventional gear': during take-off roll the tail wheel is raised from the ground and negative AoA is maintained by pilot input, to prevent the aircraft becoming airborne at too low speed, until at correct speed the aircraft is rotated. --Sivullinen (talk) 19:21, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
