Default RV-6 Transition Training - East Coast

Hey guys

I am buying my first RV and am looking for Transition Training and Tailwheel Endorsement in the East Coast. Can someone advise me on who to contact? Having a little trouble finding someone in the area.

Thanks

Kriti

Jan Bussell (based in Florida) is THE RV-6 transition training master. He's great!

And very affordable as well! I did my transition training and tail wheel endorsement with Jan this past December and enjoyed every minute of it. You can book cheap flights with Allegiance Air out of Hagerstown MD to Orlando and then rental car to Lake Okeechobee, which is where he is located.

A Medical Student!? ... and you're getting an airplane ?! Are you a whole new kind of crazy ?!

Anyway, I did my training with Kent Gorton at Mallards Landing just south of Atlanta. He may be a little slow to reply since he's also an airline pilot. I learned a lot from him.
