Hi! Rob.
For your information :- The tail spring is left over from the Mono
construction to satisfy
weight and balance requirements ( the a/c is convertible BTW) the "hook"
like thing is in fact a tow eye with which to winch the a/c backwards up
ramps into the covered trailer.
The tail wheel conversion mod, provides adequate load spread to the fuselage
to use this quite brutally without damage ensuing.
Regards
Bob Harrison G-PTAG

Does this aircraft operate from an aircraft carrier? What's that thing that
looks something like a tailhook?
Best regards,
