RE: Hanger9??
Im sure comerford2 must be talking about Hangar 9's P51 Mustang PTS (Progressive Trainer System) yes, it says its trainer, with Naca Droops at the edge of wings, down flaps, and airbrakes on landing gears, but its still not an easy plane. As it was said, go for high wing plane 40 to 60 size with an instructor. Naturally simulator gives a fair good idea about taking off, landing as well as how to control a plane while its in the air. Hangar 9 also offering a combo of high wing Alpha 40 and Alpha 60, I think these high wingers are best choice.
Have a safe flying
