I do tailwheel conversions, both for new group members on our Falconar and also people with their own aircraft, I always ensure that before I clear someone they can do both 3 point AND wheeler landings, crosswind I find most people already know crab and I ensure they have at least been shown wing down, if they can do a decent crab and kick straight landing in a tailwheel then I will leave people to continue doing this if they prefer - but up to now I have always found that people get on better and transfer to wing down when they get onto tailwheel. BsPilot, I see you are Surrey,I am in Hants, probably just down the road, so if you (or anyone you know) need a tailwheel instructor who can teach wheeler landings, then let me know.
