Default RE: Good first biplane?

I don't know if you had even thought of it. But my first biplane was the Hanger 9 Fokker DVII ARF. It's now the work horse of my WWI Jasta and I fly it about 6-8 times a year, and it's now 4 years old. It flies like it is on rails and it is a fantastic ARF to "bash" into a more realistic scale aircraft. The Fokker DVII is a tough bird and can take a beating. It gets a lot of attention from other fellow pilots and it goes together well. If you have little experience in building and or assembled a few ARF aircraft in your time, try to get your hands on one before they become more difficult to find.

I found one for you online just incase you're interested:

Hanger 9 decided to discontinue this nice plane. It's sad and I think they made a unwise decision. JMHO
