Sam, that's not A lot to work with but that from A guy that hates to do repairs, rather just build another plane.
I just soloed my young student. His first plane is going to be an ARF from Tower. Why you ask???[:@] Because until he gets out of school he doesn't have the time to build. This way he can be flying his own plane and not just my trainer then when sumer comes along he can spend the time in my shop and learn to build his own.
I didn't take him on as A student until about A week before school started and I want him to keep flying. My planes are just A bit too much for him to handle at this time.
