My son Mitch was looking at the screen when I pulled this up and he asked "Why don't you just have a tiny wheel on the bottom of the airplane and then have some way to stop the prop horizontal before landing? That way the prop doesn't hit, but you have less drag from just a little bit of the wheel extending below the fuselage." I was about to pull up some picks of the Europa, but instead I said "That's great for landing, but what about takeoff?" The look on his face was priceless! That moment of realization was physically observable. We both had a good chuckle.
