Default Old guy coming back to the hobby :D

I flew a few times in my teen years... anyways I am back in the hobby with much more money and a tendency to buy things to fast and not plan it out.... LOL

I have not even flown yet but have 6 planes and 6 engines

Hobbico Superstar 40
Megatech Nitro Trainer
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWN%3AIT&rd=1
that plane looks to be a home built
3D GILES-202 ARF
NIB 1/12 Scale House of Balsa ME 109E
Kyosho Corsair ARF

what order would I fly these planes ?

trainer to advanced of course lol

the superstar 40 need the rear wing rebuilt and the main repaired 3 balsa (spars I think they are called) have top be replaced and then the rear and main wing must be recovered...

the Megatech and Giles are NEW ARF's so non built yet

the ME 109E is a KIT total build needed

Kyosho is a ARF also but cost the most so i want to be sure not to crash it

The E bay linked plane is ready to go i guess

I have for engines
Norvel .010
Norvel .061
O.S. .25 LA
O.S. .40 Max FP
O.S. .46 Max FX
K&B .61

also 3 transmitter and flight packs

Futaba FP-7UAF new in box
Futaba Conquest FP-T6NFK used with a FP-R127DF 7 channel reciever and 4 s 148's
Futaba Conquest FP-T4NBF used with a Hitech 555 receiver and 3 HS-81's and 1 HS-60

Just to restate what is the first to last plane you would progress through the ranks with ? and maybe suggest engines setup on each

also any tips on each plane would be nice to know for quirks ect....

thanks for reading and I hope to hang here for a long time... I am serious about getting back into this hobby again
