RE: What Plane do I want?
A big cub is probally just as stable in the air as a Trainer, but mine can be tricky taking off with. So if he is not going to be taking off and landing and just wants something that flys good in the air, and is slow, then a Cub would be a good choice. If he can't land on the Trainer then I wouldn't suggest he start trying to land with the Cub. The Cub flys good, but it is no Trainer, and not something you would really want to try and teach somebody with. Good Luck!
