About Master Tail Wheel

A tailwheel plane is a special sight to see soaring through the sky. Its conventional undercarriage arrangement of two wheels in front, one in back evokes the same feeling of adventure associated with the earliest forays into aviation. But the rules for piloting such a plane are a little different; that's why instructor Larry Higgins offers specialized lessons in flying them. In addition to general flight instruction, he provides detailed lessons in controlling stick and rudder craft and also offers professional endorsements for tailwheel pilots, a type of certification that acknowledges they know how to control the plane as well as what kind of fuel it likes as a treat after it performs well.
