RE: Engine Question...
I'll put my plug in here for the LT-40 - I'm training on this bird. Today I greased my 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th landings, and performed three somewhat stable take offs. She flies real easy, and today we had some good wind coming down the runway. She just floated in, and I had to work to keep her DOWN, she likes to fly. You wont be disappointed. There is another student at the field with a NextSTAR and he's ditching it for the LT-40 as well. The LT-40 makes a nice conversion to a tail dragger, something which will be useful for your training towards the Corsair.
