No disrespect intended, but doesn't the "flight training is going down the drain on all counts because no one wants to fly taildraggers anymore" lament become a bit tiring?
You are missing my point entirely.
What I find rather difficult to understand is why one can hold a flight instructors rating but are limited to flying only nose wheel airplanes.
Sort of like driving instructors who can't figure out how to drive a car with manual shift gears and a clutch?
I don't know about you but I sure would not want to be a flight instructor and have a client want me to teach them how to fly their new RV8, because I was not competent enough to fly a tail wheel airplane.
