Flying a tail wheel aircraft is different than tricycle aircraft. The main differences are the ground operations, taxing, takeoff and landing. Many people believe tail wheel aircraft are harder to fly; this simply is not true! For decades, the most used primary flight trainer in the United States was the Piper Cub. If people can learn to fly in a tail wheel, then it shouldn’t be too tough for someone who already knows how to fly!
Most of the training consists of take off and landing practice, usually about 30-40 take offs/landings and you will be ready! I don’t just want you to be able to fly a tail wheel aircraft; I want you to be safe, and enjoy the aircraft.
After gaining your tail wheel, you will find the world of tail wheel aircraft is a large one, full of fun and interesting aviation history. You will also be an official member of an exclusive breed of pilots
