RE: another second plane advice thread....but a bit different
Take a look at the GP Contender. It's got tricycle gear, has the outline of a military trainer and would look great with any type of military scheme. The kit has been around for a very long time and has a good reputation as a second plane for people looking toward military aircraft. Most importantly, it's not a time intensive kit to build, has great instructions and it flies great.
