Default RE: Is this a good plane for a begginer?

This is a good trainer plane. It has some unnecessary options that run the price up a bit IMO but it is a good plane. As it says in the add, you need to find an instructor though. That is the single most important thing to do. I would also recommend disabling the AFS system as it will actually hinder you in many respects. Your instructor may disagree but I doubt it. There are also other trainers out there that will save you money if that is a concern but if not this is fine. You will also need a variety of field equipment to get the plane operational such as fuel, glow starter battery, spare prop, chicken stick or electric starter, prop wrench and misc small tools for minor maintenance.
