RE: What to do with your trainer?
As others have already said, keep it and fly it. I've still got my trainer even after 12 years, and I still take it out and fly it. For some reason flying a trainer after you've been on "bigger and better" planes is a total blast!!!!! And it's always nice to have a backup plane handy. I've been in situations where my trainer was the only thing I had flying and I would have been grounded without it, but I took it out and got a flying day with it to save the day. It's also nice to have around to give people intro flights with. You can take it out and put somebody on a buddy box with your trainer to introduce them to this hobby.
Now after all of that is said, if you still want to get rid of it I would recommend that you give it to a kid who's interested. Not sell, give. Help out somebody who wants to get started in this hobby.
