i learned on , and still fly an aircore family trainer. i have crashed it many times(not proud), and have been able to resurect it every time(so far). it is, most likely, not the most accurate flying model out there. the aircore does fly pretty well though. it has been easy to repair. i have repaired it at the field, and kept flying when other planes would not have survived to fly another day. my worst crashes have required a trip home to do the work.

i guess the biggest compliment i can pay the aircore trainer is my fresh purchase of an aircore colt kit as my second plane. i will build it over the winter. i believe i will crash less often from now on. i am just as sure that i will continue to crash on occasion though, and i still like the idea of a tough plane. g.
