Remember any FI(R) whom has done course on a trike and then completse a 5 hour tailwheel conversion afterwards is legally allowed to teach tailwheel
True (although I'm not sure there's any 5 hours requirement for the conversion, just training as required).
But I wrote my previous post as someone who did his initial taildragger conversion with an instructor who had only just converted to taildraggers herself - then spent another 7 hours dual with an
experienced taildragger instructor learning all the bits that I hadn't learnt in the initial checkout. I have no problems with the original instructor at all, I'm still friends with her many years later, and I also used her for my IMC course some time after my early taildragger experiences, but at the time when she did my conversion, she was not experienced enough to train me properly.
if you have completed a whole course on a tailwheel you are alot better prepared than for teaching tailwheel than the legal minimum
Can't argue with that!
