    Default Training / conventional gear Model 7 flight time

    I am looking for a few hours' time in a conventional gear SS7 so I can help a friend get his plane to Oshkosh.
    I had a check-out in a SLSA 7 Tail Wheel at Adventure Flying Services with Fred Williams ( I highly recommend ).
    Anyone know of an Instructor and a nose gear Model 7 ?
    Anyone willing to let me ride along in your nose gear Model 7 ?
    I am in Phoenix but willing to travel to you. Thanks

    I can't really help you, but I just have to say that I believe a tail wheel aircraft is still known as a "conventional gear", and with a nose wheel a "tricycle gear". Forgive me... I hate to be a "nit-picker".

    I could be wrong, but I think this post is in the wrong forum. This forum is for issues/questions about the site and information about forums. I think where you want to publish is Kitfox general discussion - you are likely to get more visibility and better engagement rate there.
