Hello all,
I'm about to get my flying license and started thinking more seriously about building, I am particulary interested in the JCD-03 Pelican, or maybe the Fauvel AV-60.
Due to some flight characteristics of ''flying planks'' (pitch damping, no flaps, etc...), I guess that it would be safer to fly in a two-seater first, however, there is no two-seater versions of those airplanes. Off the top of my head, there is actually very few tailless two-seaters, a couple of Fauvel gliders/motor gliders and a few Alpaero Choucas.
How then can one make the transition from a standard aircraft to a tailless one? Or is a transition phase unnecessary?
Any feedback is welcome.
