Default RE: First glow plane--what to expect?

I made the transition from parkflyers to glow power with no big problems. I flew park flyers for two years and have about 12, 6 are GWS kits. The biggest difference is how much faster the glow planes go. Just be careful on your first couple of landings and you should be ok. I went with an Avistar w/os 46fx which is a trainer for my first glow plane and I am very happy with it. It's pretty cool holding on to the tail and throttling up and feeling the power[>:] Good luck!!
