Tailwheel endorsement in Central Florida
Does anyone have any recommendations for a place to get a tailwheel endorsement in the central Florida area? Preferrably ORL, SFB, or ISM? I already know that I can do it at Air Orlando (ORL), but it is a bit on the pricey side. I found a place on the internet called GutmanAir out of TIX that looks reasonably priced, but I would prefer something a little closer if I can find it. Also, if you have any opinions on GutmanAir, please share those too in case I end up doing it there. I could even go up to DAB if anyone knows of reputable, reasonably priced school up that way. Thanks in advance.

When I googled Paul Santropietro he was highly recommended in some other forums as well. If anyone has his contact information, please PM me. Thanks.

This is not directed at anyone in this thread because I fully endorse tailwheel flying, however I find it strange that when someone pays for a tailwheel endorsement no one says anything, but if someone even hints at paying for a type rating (regardless of the cost difference) there are several people who pop up to voice their opinion...
Just an observation, nothing more.
