If you have never had the opportunity to fly a tailwheel aircraft you
probably don’t realise what you’re missing. Learning to fly a
‘taildragger’ will be some of the most challenging and rewarding
flying you’ll do. It will open up to you a new range of aeroplanes to fly
such as warbirds, homebuilts, vintage aircraft and high performance
aerobatic machines.

Advanced Cockpit Flight Training’s tailwheel course begins with an
introduction to our trainer, the Super Decathlon, and includes stalls,
steep turns and sideslipping. The course then moves into takeoff,
circuit and landing operations beginning with the three point landing
and progressing onto the more challenging wheeler landing.

Generally 5-7 lessons are required to achieve a consistant standard
and become confident landing the aeroplane in all conditions.

Learning to fly a tailwheel aircraft will be a challenging and enjoyable
experience. The skills you learn will change the way you fly,
increasing your confidence in crosswinds and improving your
handling of all types of aircraft. Our instructors are highly experienced
with thousands of hours in Chipmunks, Tiger Moths, T6-Texan,
CAP 10s, Decathlons and the Extra 300L to name but a few so there
is no better place to experience flying a tailwheel aircraft.
