Default A good 3rd plane is a ??

What type of flying would you like to do?

- If you'd like a plane that can flip and flop about while still retaining good low-speed habits I'd steer you to a Sig Somethin' Extra. With tall gear and an appropriate engine there isn't much it can't do.

- If you're partial to smooth, pattern-style aerobatics a Cloud Dancer is a good bet. Its very light for its size but is very smooth in flight due to its long tail moment.

Both planes are fairly light - this gives you a hand in learning to land a taildragger.
