Taildragger is an airplane that sits nose high on the ground and has a little wheel on the tail and the two main wheels upfront, like biplanes and Piper Cubs. They are prone to spinning out on the ground, thats called a groundloop.

At the airport, you'll hear the "those who have, and those who will" for groundloops and gear up landings. As well as divorces for the airline pilots.
