Because on floats a DC-3 is not a Seabee or Duck.Why can't you. You've got to have a tailwheel endorsement to operate a twin seabee or grumman on land.

I did the multi in the Travel Air. Probably one of the most gutless airplanes I've flown. It was during the summer so we only got a fraction of the 180 horsepower.I did all of my multiengine training in the PA-44 Seminole. It's a pretty forgiving multi airplane, although pretty boring as well.
I'll have the opportunity to fly a Travel Air in about a week or so for multi/IFR currency, and I'm looking forward to it. Should be more fun than the Seminole or Gutless Duchess.
Yar, what I was mainly getting at is that intense positive action is required on a Baron, not so much on a Seminole. Almost non, relatively speaking. I'm a man of extremes, though I'm not sure I'd want to rent a friggen Baron!Vmc is for certification, the real world you want to be nowhere near it
Speed is life.

Where is this Travelair located that you'll be flying?Speaking of the Travel Air, was there anything else you didn't like about it outside of the performance issues? I'll be flying a 1958 model, although it's in really good condition for its age.
The PDF copy of the POH/AFM I've been studying is pretty funny
What about this one?????
I suppose most multi-engine trainers are gutless, that's probably why they're used as training aircraft. Speaking of the Travel Air, was there anything else you didn't like about it outside of the performance issues? I'll be flying a 1958 model, although it's in really good condition for its age.
The PDF copy of the POH/AFM I've been studying is pretty funny; I'm not accustomed to the format of such an old flight manual. It's so old, that the FAA didn't even exist when this thing was printed (was still the CAA at that point).
Depending on your point of view, they are in the "correct" positions.One thing I don't like about the older Beechs: the prop and the throttle levers are in the opposite position compared to everything else I've flown. Look out for the prop lever to be on the left side of the quadrant and the throttle in the middle.
