Hello everyone. I am a guy from spain and I am interested in renting (build time) a tailwheel aircraft in the U.S.. If there is someone who can give me some information, I'll be very grateful.

Thank you.

Don't let the name scare you if you're not into aerobatics! I fly with them and can highly recommend them. They have 4 Supercubs and 3 Great Lakes. The supercubs work out around $90 per hour wet.

Even with the slipping Pound, $90 per hour for a Supercub is mindboggling to us Brits!

Me too! Good thing I only pay $50! One of the side benefits of my glider club.

I'll have to ask my buddy Jim if they rent the Citabria solo or not.
