High Planes Taildraggers is dedicated to back country flying and events in the Rockies.

We support the community of pilots who venture into the “puckerbrush” and remote landing sites.

We are based at KCPR with pilots from surrounding airports.  We seek out dirt and grass landing locations, ranches, and other opportunities in the Greater Wyoming Area.  Our group of taildragger enthusiasts consists of a variety of aircraft: Kitfox 5 & 7, American Champion 8GCBC, Bellanca, Citabria, CarbonCub, Rans S7, Piper, Avid & others!

“Few things in this life can compare to the experience of learning to fly. Once addicted to the gift of flight, adding a Tail Wheel Endorsement is an amazing leap in a pilot’s experience. It’s a constant challenge that never disappoints! And the camaraderie that comes from flying with a group of back country pilots to new back country destinations is priceless.”
