That's entirely dependent upon you. A logbook endorsement will only occur when you have demonstrated you can safely fly a taildragger in various conditions. There are too many variables in pilot skills and learning curves to be able to promise a signoff in a defined amount of flight time. However, we've generally seen signoffs between 5 and 20 hours.

Sometimes, everyone needs a mulligan. Flat tires, family emergencies, arguments with the significant other, failing to pass the AIM's "IMSAFE" checklist can happen to anyone.

But the aviation industry waits for nobody.

If you can't make a scheduled appointment, you must let us know 24 hours in advance, and we'll reschedule. If it's less than 24 hours, you can choose to take your mulligan and we'll reschedule, or save it for another day and get charged a $400 cancel fee.

Even with prior taildragger time, we don't know what you know and what you don't or what you understand or how long its been since you've flown tailwheel.  So generally speaking, we'll start at the beginning. However, because you have previous experience you may accelerate through the blocks of training in a shorter amount of time.

After the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, the USA Transportation Security Administration instituted strict rules on flight instruction for foreign nationals (to include "Green Card" holders). 

Therefore, as with many aviation questions, the answer is "it depends". Please contact us to discuss your particular situation.
