tailwheel plane that I have been training (J-3) I will not be able to
land at any other airport, period.

Is this normal, for the tailwheel?


Where I learned to fly, they had an Aeronca Champ. You could learn to fly
in it, but after that, you'd never fly it solo again. It was (might still
be) dual only.

Helicopters aren't much different. When I was learning to fly a
helicopter, solo was no problem. Now that I have a helicopter rating, I
can't get near a helicopter (Robinson, anyway) by myself unless I have a
bunch more time and go take the factory safety course in Torrance,
California.
