Yeah, get that Pitts and make sure your wife is watching you fly it for the first time. It should be about 30 seconds of entertainment before it is totally destroyed if you have never flown a plane before!

The Cub flys great if you "clip" the wing like MinnFlyer mentioned, but it's not a beginners plane.

The cub will fly lots better than the PT40, especially in the wind once you get some experience in flying.

Good Luck
