Tailwheel Instruction near Toronto
Hello
Does anyone know of places to get tailwheel instruction other than Brampton and Rockliffe. I’m not looking to do the entire course, just to log a few dual hours for the experience.The other forums regarding tailwheel instruction seem to be outdated as many of the places mentioned don’t offer tailwheel instruction anymore
Thanks

The most fun I had flying was in a taildragger at a local flying club (that no longer exists).
Next time you see someone flying one, go chat them up and ask for a ride. Or join (or e-mail) a local COPA/EAA chapter and see if anyone there drags tail. I think there's a flying club at the Woodstock airport with a J3. Plenty of guys drag tail at Guelph and Brantford. Shouldn't be hard too hard to get a ride.

A great place to get some tailwheel experience is the Edenvale Classic aircraft foundation.
They do training on a Fleet Canuck and have several other interesting tailwheel aircraft.
If you are prepared to invest a bit of time you can end up flying in their Cornell, Auster or Tiger Moth.
