RE: Best Trainer???
yes, i agree.. the hanger 9 arrow is an awesome plane,, it can be very mellow and used as a trainer,
however, once you get the hang of it , the semi-semetrical airfoil will unleash some aerobatic ability...
one of the Avistars is also semi-semetircal,,, i learned on one,, it's a bit smaller than the arrow, still flys great.
i have seen a few NexStars at the field, and i think they are cool, and do seem to fly well, but yeah,
you don't need to pay for all that extra non sence...
for sure you need an instructor!
