RE: beginner plane purchase logic
Get the super cub. The thing is you will end up sacrificing your first plane to learning that is why they are trainers; they are not the game day plane. I see many new people who only consider the one airplane and most will quit if it gets one scratch; they cant handle the heartbreak of learning a skill. Once you have the skill you can do anything. Getting you past the cartwheel landings and loops into the ground will require a realitvly simple plane; the simpler the better.
