RE: First Low Wing Plane
One thing a lot of people forget to consider is converting their trianer to a taildragger before moving on. This would allow you to get some taildragger experience before flying the tiger 60 as a taildragger. It will allow you to take one step at a time... Taildragger then low wing instead of taildragger and low wing all at once. It will also make yor trainer look a lot better as well!
If you fly from a grass field the difference in how the plane handles on the ground as a taildragger will make you wonder why you didn't make the change earlier. As a taildragger it may be a little more of a handful on take-offs but once you are used to it you will never go back!
