Brief Description:

Teaching Points:

  • Pilots should train to maintain existing capabilities and to add new capabilities. Tailwheel training can provide new piloting challenges and improve airplane handling in other aircraft types.

  • Once in the air, tailwheel aircraft are roughly equivalent to nosewheel aircraft of the same size and weight.

  • On the ground, tailwheel aircraft are more demanding than an equivalent aircraft equipped with nose gear.

  • Pilots are advised to seek experienced Flight Instructors and well-maintained aircraft for tailwheel flight instruction.

    • Other tailwheel pilots, type clubs, flight schools and other pilot organizations are good sources of information on tailwheel flight training opportunities.
