Default RE: Experienced flyer poll

My First trainer, a great Planes trainer .40 I built from a kit, I learned to fly on, then I gave it to a friend, under one condition, you give it to someone else. Believe it or not, 6 people learned to fly on that plane before it met its demise. I ended up building the trainer .60 on floats. That was a "Great Plane"......it had a symmetrical wing, so I built the .60 with a flat wing, bolt on, and flew it for a long time. I must have re-kitted it, but I really don't recall, but I don't have it any more. You could do anything with it with that airfoil, and it flew inverted great. I would buy another in a snap if they still made them, but then, everything went by way of the ARF. Ugghhhh...........
