Default Ercoupe for training

Can you obtain a PPL without knowing how to use rudder pedals?

Certainly!

Pilots who learn in tricycle landing gear airplanes will occassional
push one pedal or the other, but they rarely learn to use them properly.

Pilots who learn to fly taildraggers, on the other hand, learn to
properly use the rudder pedals or suffer serious financial and bodily
consequences.

You're a little full of yourself, aren't you? With a little beta on
the prop I can parallel park my trike.

Your turn.

I'll bet you could do it quicker and in less space if you had beta on a
taildragger!
