I must say I am thrilled with the enthusiastic responses and suggestions I've received so far. Alot of what has been said makes sense and was something I didn't consider in some cases but none the less I appreciate the time in helping me with this.

Sooooo, with that said I really like the pushers like the stryker but I figure it might take a different kind of getting used to to fly it compared to the traditional elevator, aeleron and rudder. I might still get one though sometime. I also like the cessna like planes that have been suggested. How much difference does an above wing vs below wing make as in the parkzone T-28?

As for where I want to go I'm thinking that I want to stay small/medium range the biggest would be the SR-71 in the distant future but I'm content with the size I've mentioned like the A-10 and Corsair or the like. I definetly only want electric I've avoided gassers/glow so far and I think I'm happy with that. I have all electric FE boats and I love them.
