RE: First Trainer for the Nephew! (Uncle experienced pilot)
There is also the WM Skyraider Mach 1. It is a high wing semi-symmetrical trainer that can be modded to a tail dragger. The best part is that they are built well with good covering and they have a street price under $70. If you want t a low wing there is the Mach 2 for the same price and it comes as a tail dragger. I have both planes and they are a great value. My Mach 1 has a camera mount and bomb drop, the Mach 2 is just a great flying and aerobatic plane.
