Default The plane truth?

I am getting into my first gas powered airplane 27% and would like to know the general (flying) differences between the following types of planes.

Cap 232 (G)?

Extra 300

Extra 260

Edge 540

The plane I am interested in in the Hanger 9 Cap232 (G). It has a great price and enough wing area to carry a DA 50.

I have been flying over 20 years and would not have any trouble flying any of the above aircraft. I am purposely NOT stating my flying style as I don't want that to influence your thoughts.

Thanks,
Mike

Of the 4 planes you listed, the Cap is the only one that has a bad habit of snapping - They even call it "The Cap Snap".

Aside from that, they are all in pretty much the same catagory. And of the 4, My personal favorite is the Extra 300, but mainly for cosmetics
