Sounds like you're on the fast track to somewhere. Pattern, Stiks and giant scale on ther tarmac and still on your first. Hope you fill out those big plans well and enjoyably. I'd worry about getting good with plane #1 before I invested in #2, 3 & 4 without knowing what you might like or dislike about them.
