Instructor Checkout

I need to get my wobbly prop endorsement and my "normal" instructor from my old club is happy to do this. For reference he's recently retired from the airlines, 17,000 hours he says...

I'm part of a group and I've been told that if he wants to do my wobbly prop training (~1 hour) in that aircraft, he'll need to get checked out in it. So, an experienced instructor is being checked out by a significantly less experienced PPL...that seems crazy to me?! (and of course I have to pay for his checkout!) I believe he's flown the type before.

Any ideas? Who's being unreasonable?
