Default RE: whats a good second plane???

ORIGINAL: jagnweiner

I noticed no one mentioned the Bruce Tharpe Enterprises Venture 60. From what I've heard, it's a nice .60 size plane. Bruce designed the 4*60 and the Venture contains his improvements. on the 4*.
I have to vote for the Venture 60 as well since I have one framed up and waiting to be covered. It is a design very similar to the 4* but it looks a lot better. The fuse looks similar to an extra 330L in the canopy area and yet it has a constant chord wing which is something to look for in a second plane. I am in the process of putting an enclosed cowl on mine as the nose is an open cheek type like on the 4* and this is the only part of the plane I don't like.

Now if I could just find the time to finish the darn thing!!!
