RE: What makes good second airplane??
I would highly reccomend not getting a warbird or a full-symmetrical plane for your second plane. I learned to fly on an LT-40 and it was a beautiful plane to fly. My second plane was a SIG Kavalier that i picked up at an auction. it was so old that i t had a kraft AM radio system and an Enya 45 engine that came with it. I replaced all the electronics, flew it with the Enya and it flew awesome. semi-symmetrical, high wing design. an excellent second plane
