It is good to hear all of the good impressions of the transition from a trainer to a T2. I have been away from the hobby for a few years and have the bug again. I have a Tower Hobbies 60 trainer that flies like a dream and a T2 that I only have to cover the wing to finish. I have an OS 60 to drag it around with. I can't wait to get some more stick time on the trainer so I can move on to the T2. I have been playing around with the RealFlight Simm and have gotten pretty good on the computer. Does anyone know if this practice is going to help me or may make me to comfortable with a plane that may not react the same way my trainer does?

On a more interesting note I finished re-powering Eddie Weeks Fed-Ex DC-10 Jet with JetCat P-120's and delivered it to the lucky new owner Scott Foster at Superman 2002. It is kind of weird working with Eddie on jets when I still haven't mastered my trainer, but building is my passion. If anyone would like to see some good photo's of the DC-10's that Eddie built just shot me your address. They are really cool. The plane is 12 feet long with a 12 foot wing span. Well I have been dragging on. If anyone has any tips of the trade for transition to the Tiger 2, I would like to here them.
