Took my father up for a ride yesterday and on landing I almost ground looped to the right. While taxing back the plane would turn right Ok, but had to use brake to make it turn left. On post flight inspection the tailwheel will lock for straight and right turns, but is free swiveling to the left.
This is a Maule 8 inch tailwheel, with about 600 hrs of my man handling. I thought I saw an article somewhere on this site on rebuilding the Maule tailwheel, but I'm a dummy when it comes to the search function.
Can anyone help?
