Hi,
In Germany you need to have a tail wheel endorsement.
Cheers

I'm not saying the FAA is wrong on this one... In fact they are probably
right. However in other countries around the world there is no tail wheel
endorsement.
It may be interesting to see what countries do have a tail wheel
endorsement. I'll Start:
North of the 49th I don't know of any requirement for an endorsement to fly
conventional gear. There are endorsements for IFR, floats and weight.

The FAA requires pilots without prior tail wheel experience to have a
specific logbook endorsement to fly one. They must think a tail wheel
poses a little more challenge.
Certainly, people become comfortable with what they are familiar with
and often fear the unfamiliar. Those that have mastered any tricky
feat tend to forget the effort it took to learn it in the first place.
