MichaelJP59,
In a word no. For me atleast, I will need to do tail wheel differences training which is extra to the AOPA course, but as my instructor has already pointed out you can do alot more circuits in 30 mins in a Pitts than you can in a typical spam-can.
I don't know if there are minimum experience requirements to rent a Pitts yet, but this is why I made the point about thinking about why you would want to do the course and what you want to fly afterwards. It maybe doesn't make too much sense learning aeros on a Pitts if you are planning to fly something like a Firefly afterwards.
