Tailwheel Endorsement: A Multi-Benefit Flying Experience

Tailwheel Endorsement with AV8

Fun, skill, and flight review all rolled into one, with potential cost savings.

The Tailwheel Endorsement isn’t just another box to check, it just may be the most fun you can have in an airplane! This endorsement gives you the skills to operate classic tailwheel aircraft, and opens the door to grass and remote airstrips. Beyond that, this unique training guarantees a real improvement in your overall aviation skillset. Get a better understanding of aerodynamics, improve stick and rudder skills, and become proficient at crosswind landings.

When you complete your endorsement, it can also count as your flight review — meaning you can swap a routine check for something truly memorable. Insurance companies love seeing a tailwheel endorsement too, often rewarding pilots with better rates or coverage options. With added value like that, some pilots say it practically pays for itself through savings.

Every pilot who’s done it says the same thing: “the coolest thing I’ve ever experienced!” Are you curious to try our American Champion Citabria? This is a solid investment in both your flying technique and your wallet.
