The Condor's a great twin-stick taildragger, but I think that they're all on Permits nowadays, so the only way you'll get any instruction on one is to buy a share in one of the various syndicates dotted around the country.

I'm in one such syndicate, at White Waltham, and we have three instructors in the syndicate - but that's a rather extreme way of getting yourself ready to fly your Turbulent!

Piper's suggestion of a flying holiday in France isn't a bad one, so long as you can find an instructor who speaks enough of a language that you are able to talk flying in.

Ours still has that placard in it.

I think the difference is that most people don't voluntarily go near lions or tigers.
