First of all, welcome to RCU. Don't be afraid to ask any questions, that's what we're here for.

A good place to start is to look over the list I compiled on airplanes that are available. You can find that list here: [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_4537845/tm.htm]Looking for a trainer, what's available. (Updated 8-14-06)[/link]

As for where to start. Joining a club and finding an instructor is probably the best first step that you can make. Since you didn't list where you live in your profile I couldn't tell you of any clubs in your area. That doesn't mean they don't exist. In fact, most people who say there aren't any clubs are usually surprised to find that there are clubs in the area. Let us know where you live and we'll see if we can't find a club for you to hook up with.

Hope this helps

Ken
