I have recommended the Easy Sport (as well as other planes) as a second plane for a few of the students I have taught. I don't have the exact number handy of how many, but I have put a few stundents on to them. It's a fun plane to fly and will land like it's on a wire. Now while that is true, it wouldn't be the first I recommend. Look at this list of planes I've put together as it contains a list of planes that make a good second plane.
