Ye I'm no expert but it could be that I guess. You never know, maybe if I phoned them again and asked the same question I might get a different answer. I never got it in writing unfortunately. Could also be a lot down to what the insurance company says as well. I doubt I will do any tailwheel flying in the UK any time soon anyway as there isn't much about, especially that you can hire as P1. If I did do some then I would definitely have to do a checkout flight anyway so I could always ask the instructor doing it to sign me off again for EASA. Hopefully it wouldn't take as long as a normal tailwheel checkout because I have already done the checkout and have additional tailwheel time under my belt. Or would I technically need to fly a minimum of 5 hours with the EASA instructor to qualify?
