    Default Looking for experienced Pacer CFI in southern Utah

    I am the new owner of a '59 PA-22/20 with no tail wheel experience. I would like to get my tail wheel endorsement in my plane if possible and am looking for an experienced
    Pacer CFI in the southern Utah area, I'm in Saint George. Any help tracking one down would be much appreciated.

    Nice looking airplane, obviously a 22/20 conversion, nothing against those as I did my TW endorsement in one several years ago, no moved on to a Clipper, I love Sticks I almost full span ailerons...

    Spend the money to get dual brakes installed. Mine just came out of a rebuild after a ground loop training a new taildragger pilot. I put brakes in before I ever took a lesson, saved the plane in the first few hours.

    I flew my first few Clipper hours from the right, my instructor kept the brakes until we got to know each other...
