I always try to urge a nexcomer to go with a shoulder wing style model aircraft as his/her second airplane. If your looking for an ARF the Great Planes Easy Sport is a nice model to fly; the Carl Goldberg Falcon 56 MK II ARF is another fine choice for a second aircraft. Perhaps you'd like to build your second airplane from a kit; with that in mind I highly reccomend the Sig Mid-Star 40 as a real fun plane to fly. I had one with a .45 on it and it was just a blast to fly. Try the mid wing plane as your second model and you'll then be ready for a low wing airplane.

Soft landings.
