Does anyone know where, in the North of England, (Lancs, Yorks, N.Lincs) I can rent a simple tailwheel aircraft to do some Tailwheel Conversions?
As more and more of the older aircraft, such as Piper Cubs, move onto a PtF, rather than a CofA, they become unavailable to rent, and, short of buying a PtF aircraft, (or a share in one) Tailwheel Conversions are becoming practically impossible.
This situation isn't going to get any better as older types move to a PtF, and, unless the hire of PtF aircraft is allowed for this purpose, tailwheel flying will surely become a thing of the past.

Ps. Simple aerobatic aircraft are going the same way, too!
