My trainer was a Eagle 2, my second plane was a Tiger 2. I soloed on the Eagle and flew it about a year before going to the Tiger. My opinion upon first flying the Tiger was that it was just as easy to fly as the Eagle. In fact, the Tiger is a little heavier and faster and I think is easier to fly in wind than the Eagle (or most other trainers). Trainers generally do not handle wind well.

I don't think you will have trouble learning on a Tiger 2. On the other hand, don't fall in love with your first airplane. Chances are if it even survives your learning experience it will be repaired many times and ugly.
