RE: Warbirds "trainer"
The H9 60-size warbirds all seem to be described by their owners as, "flies like a trainer".
I've flown the P40 and the P47 and darned if they don't fly as safely as my Tiger2, Tiger60, Calmato Sport, you get the picture. The two I've got experience with would work. They do so well, in fact, that I'm about to finish up the F4U Corsair. I know one guy I trust who has had one and he says the thing....... you get the picture.
