Ever dreamt of flying one of the world’s most iconic aircraft – like the Tigermoth, Chipmunk, Decathlon, C185, Stearman, Pitts Special, or Extra?
With UPRT Australia, you can gain the tailwheel endorsement you need to safely and confidently operate these legendary and high-performance aircraft.
Flying a tailwheel aircraft is often described as “more challenging” than flying a nose-wheel aircraft, but it’s not harder, just different and to teach it properly, you need experienced instructors.
Tailwheel flying requires unique skills in ground handling, take-offs, and landings. Our training is designed to give you the knowledge and practical experience to handle these differences safely and confidently.
Our tailwheel course provides a full tailwheel endorsement, not limited to a Super Decathlon. This means the skills you gain are transferable to other tailwheel aircraft, from classic trainers to high-performance aerobatic aircraft like the Pitts Special and Extra. If you’ve ever dreamed of flying these legendary high-performance aircraft, building a solid tailwheel foundation is the perfect first step to take your flying journey to the next level.
Looking to take your skills further?
We can also combine tailwheel training with aerobatics or formation flying courses, giving you a complete skill package that builds precision, control, and confidence in the cockpit.
Get started today! Contact UPRT Australia to learn more about our tailwheel training packages and start your journey flying some of the most iconic and exhilarating aircraft ever built.
