Default RE: First Kit - First Maiden

That's a beautiful Stick John. I love the radial style cowl!

I'm with you guys as far as having a more experienced pilot do the maiden on the Shoestring or at least buddy boxing. We've got a lot of great pilots at our field, so I'll make sure we get help when we get to that point.

DragonHeart, when you say completely different to land what difference should we expect? I'd guess that it would have to come in hotter/steeper than the Stick to avoid snaps and will probably do better with wheel landings than three-pointing. Is that even close?
