So then we should limit the choices of available "ARF's" to only those that "have withstood the test of time"?

And forgo all low wing lightly loaded planes like the Pulse, Super Sportster, etc.?

IMHO the "Classics" are just that. You can fly a stick if you wish, or you can purchase something else.

If I want to fly a classic I fly one, when I don't I don't.

Why do we or anyone for that matter HAVE to pay homage to the history of aviation?

Why do we HAVE to care?

It's up to individual choice. If you're interested, you do so.


The Pulse is not an inferior plane, it handles well and it lands at a walking speed ( I don't know why Insane says it has a higher landing speed than others, but it slows down to land FAR better than most sticks as the wing loading is so low... ).


Why get so upset that people are not necessarily choosing your first choice?

I guess I'll go eat my "Veggie Burger" and avoid those nasty clogged arteries...
