Wow....thanks for all the responses. I should have clarified one point about the purchase. There is probably a really good chance that I won't be flying it this year. I was just looking to make the purchase in the next couple of months so I could have plenty of time to get it put together for next year. I bought my Nexstar used and already 100% built so this would be my first experience with putting a plane together. Right now I don't have my trainer "mastered" but I should be fairly close by the end of the year. The trainer has promised to help me out so next year I will be able to use a buddy box and get a little extra training. Hopefully that will be enough to get me over the hump. If not....I'll post next year how I crashed my plane and everybody can tell me "I told you so". (I think I will take a look at the Twist too to see how that compares.) Anyway, from the messages it looks like the .91 will be best for me. Now I just have to decide between the FX and the Surpass.

Papermache - The instructor with the UCD actually has the Magnum in his plane and loves it. He said he hasn't had to touch it for 3 years. But most everybody else I talked to in my group isn't a big fan of it. I've also read mixed reviews on here. So I've been hesitant to consider it. But at the price I would definitely consider it.

Thanks again everybody!
