      Sec. 25.231 - Longitudinal stability and control.
      
       (a) Landplanes may have no uncontrollable tendency to nose over in any reasonably expected operating condition or when rebound occurs during landing or takeoff. In addition -- (1) Wheel brakes must operate smoothly and may not cause any undue tendency to nose over; and (2) If a tail-wheel landing gear is 
      used, it must be possible, during the takeoff ground run on concrete, to 
      maintain any attitude up to thrust line level, at 75 percent of V (b) For seaplanes and amphibians, the most adverse water conditions safe for takeoff, taxiing, and landing, must be established. [Docket No. 5066, 29 FR 18291, Dec. 24, 1964, as
