Two questions, but first a little background. I?ve got about 100 hours in a 6a, and am building an 8. Sold the RV in April and am a little rusty though I?ve logged a couple of flights in a 12 since then just for fun. The new plane should be ready in the next couple of months and so I?m needing to get back in the air to knock the rust off as well as get a tailwheel endorsement.
I understand recommendations about time in type being given to folks coming from spam cans, but I?m curious how important it might be for someone coming with some experience? In other words, is there a typical tailwheel trainer that a local school would have that should do the trick? If so, which is the best: Decathalon, citabria, Cub, etc...?
Also, I?m in Delaware which seems to be devoid of any flight schools much less tailwheel schools. Any recommendations? Particularly if anyone knows of something in Virginia Beach, I?ll be down there anyway for a work trip in a couple of weeks.
Thanks!
