I would second outerzone. It's a great place for plans. If you want a stable flier and don't mind shaping wood, The Kwik-Fli III, the Kaos, or Super Kaos are very good flying planes, can do most aerobatics and are easy to land. These were the pattern champs of the late 60s early 70s but the Kaos series is a very very popular 2nd or 3rd airplane now.
