Understood, and thanks for the advice/info.
While I would like to believe I will never crash, I know I will. It's part of the learning process. I'm not looking forward to it, but it will happen. I just hope it's not on the maiden.
So, the question is do I want to destroy a $100 plane, or a $175 plane. If I don't have to pay for the first one, that might make the decision a little easier.
I've got a lot of thinking to do.........
