Tailwheel rating for a Turbulent
Mention was made earlier in this thread about flying a Turbulent at the Tiger Club. When I was a member you had to not only be checked out on the Super Cub (L-18) first but also on the Tiger Moth before you were allowed to fly a Turb.
However, it has also been suggested that flying a Jodel was a close approximation to a Turbulent, and the Tiger Club does have a Jodel D150 which is still available to members (well, it was when I last checked).
Either way, a good place to go!

No record of that, GtE.
Microlights account for a significant amount of LAA aircraft, and most LAA coaches have experience of instructing on a wide range of microlights.

That article says "all aircraft within the remit of the Light Aircraft Association". That obviously includes all microlights on LAA Permits, but I can't see how you can interpret that as including anything with a BMAA permit - including the flexwing pictured in the article.

Currently still working on the Turbulent. But I'm hoping to do my tailwheel training with the Tiger Club shortly.
I gather requirements have changed over the years, but now most of the tailwheel training is on the cub, with a short flight on the CAP10 to get you used to lighter controls, prior to soloing on a Turbulent.
