Default RE: Basic training on a Warbird

I agree that it's not fair to call this one a Warbird. You can put a dress on a pig and teach it to sing but it's still a pig and just because you put some decals on this low wing trainer don't make it a warbird. I have one and it's a very stable flyer and one of the more versatile planes around so using it as a first plane isn't a bad idea cause many trainers fly like crap. It is also very durable and easy to repair so I wouldn't hesitate to teach someone to fly with it just don't tell them they can fly a warbird because of the experiance.

I plan on putting some floats on it to go up to the lake.
