Thanks Genghis, and Ifitaint.

It's fine if the student has a share in, or owns his own 2 seat tailwheel aircraft.

The problem arises when this is not the case. For instance, if he has a share in, or owns a single seat tailwheel, he cannot do Differences Training in that.

Also, if he wants to do Differences Training so that he can fly tailwheels whenever the opportunity arises, but does not own an aircraft, or share, he is in the same boat.

In both these cases, the pilots need to be able to hire an aircraft in which to do the Differences Training.

Unfortunately, almost all the older tailwheel aircraft have now transfered to the LAA Permit to Fly, leaving mainly the more modern and complex(expensive) tailwheels still on a CofA.
