RE: would this biplane be a good second or third plane?
MARTNO1FAN, the main difference is that BIPES need for you to be active on the throttle lever during landing approaches, you have to be vigilant about airspeed because they slow down much faster than a single winged plane. If you want the plane, then get it! Just consider yourself a temporary student again and fly it with an instructor until you get the hang of it. I think a great choice for a low time pilot would be the GOLDBERG ULTIMATE with a .60 engine, very easy to fly.
