Default RE: First time hobbyist.

I just donated a Eagle II to my club, but it is only for 1st Flights for perspective students on a buddy box. I had to modify it to a taildragger, but once it's in the air, no difference in flying. It's funny that I just happened to be flying this plane one day when some spectators came out, and I put the son on a buddy box - then he was hooked. They bought a plane, 8 flights later the boy soloed and is now one the best pilots I've seen. I still like the Kadet, just don't see too many of them in this area.
