Hi,
I answered "still Have it". Actually I have a trainer, not my first one. It only lasted 17 years They are nice for float flying and introducing new people and fun flying.
I often fly the trainer first then fly the more aerobatic ones after the thumbs are warmed up. My trainer is a Franken-trainer made up from two LT 40s. It has extra rudder and only half the dihedral of a stock LT40.
