You might also want to consider a plane that you can expand with. that is to put more throw into the controls and go with more power later on all with the same plane. I have had a falcon for many years it was set up as a trainer at first but now it is set up as a docial high wing airobat. And when I re-coverd it I set it up for my first float plane. I can pull the ground gear off and add the floats in a matter of minutes.bottam line the plane has had the capacity to be modified throughout its life.
