Two hours seems a bit short to me. I think if I'd done it all with my
acro instructor, over a short time, it would probably have taken
around six. Just getting wheel landings down reliably is at least
a couple of hours. I certainly spent a lot of time flying round the
pattern doing stuff I was doing just fine (three-point landings,
which I was doing fine with after one hour), which is one reason
I got very frustrated with my first instructor.

I did my initial tailwheel endorsement was in a Piper J-3 Cub,
including spins, in two hours with seven landings.
The second tailwheel aircraft checkout in a Citabria 7GCBC took ten
hours to meet the minimum insurance requirements.
