RE: Getting back into the hobby
The Tiger 60, Tiger II, 4*40 and 4*60 all work OK as 2nd aircraft... The can be used as introductory trainers too.
There should be very little problem when getting back into the hobby using a Tiger II. They are very well behaved airplanes. Maybe one or two refresher flights with an instructor standing by would be a good idea... but I forsee no problem at all with you getting the Tiger II.
