MinnFlyer: Your sarcasim is noted, but that wasn't what I was trying to bring out in the topic. I think most with an opinion have flown the high wing trainer, the low wing trainer, the extra's and probably a few things beyond. In the circle I fly with, there are very few people that build low wing trainers due to the simple fact that for MOST people, the second step isn't needed. A low wing trainer is a beginner plane, A extra is an intermediate to advanced depending on what you do with it.
With my personal experiance, people that buy the low wing trainer after having a high wing one are quite dissapointed and really wish they had made a bigger step. Once again, I say, this is not for everyone but I find that it is for most people 35 and below. We played a lot more nintendo
There are also the people that come out and are flying there high wing with a instructor for 3 months and still haven't figured it out. Thats great, these people have an amazing amount of vigilance and the fact is that ey are having as much fun as any of us. For these people, maybe a second beginner plane is needed.

The only reason I really even said anything is that most poeple I know that have gone this route consider it a waste of money and time because they are bored of the thing after 5 flights.
