Long gone are the days where pilots had to turn a box full of sticks into a flying airplane, they can now get it done in an evening.

That is actually a good thing and a bad thing. It's too bad that most people have no interest in building anymore. I can understand if someone doesn't want to get a kit for their first plane but I think they should at least get the ARF. Then they have some concept of how the plane goes together and what makes it work.
That being said, I also learned how to fly on a Tower Trainer and it is an excellent plane.
