Ok, I am a newbie but my thinking is this. I am getting into this hobby to learn to fly planes like the texan, mustang, bi-planes and other aircraft. Why is it so important to get the easiest plane to fly, one that actually flies its self like auto pilot in a real airplane? As far as I can tell from these forums a trainer flies slow, lands practically stalled, and takes off without any rudder manipulation. From my understanding if I use the arrow or any other trainer with high wings and 3 big plush wheels, when I start on another plane I will still need to learn rudder control, a whole new landing technique, take off will be different and also learn different flying techniques! If I am wrong please correct me! Is the easiest route always the most efficient route? Thank you.
