You need to tell us more about yourself... Such as older, super young, middle aged. Reflexes. Do you play video games? Will you be using a simulator. All those factor into the plane to get. If you have an instructor. Are younger. Play video games and will be using a sim. Get the Arrow or Avistar. If you are older. Slower reflexes or just want the easiest plane to learn on, get the LT40. Or if you want something in the middle get one with a 60" or so wing span with a flat bottom wing. I've "seen" the Nextstar. Didn't excite me much next to my custom LT40.
