This is a tough question, when I first started all I wanted was a P-40 or P-51 after owning one and flying another they will likely never be something I really get into. I just do not like having to do so much work just to keep a plane from becoming toothpicks.from the ground loops to the blazing speed landings I have found that next to heli's true scale warbirds are the toughest flight out there.
I still love how they look but I want to have fun while flying and they just are not for me flight wise.
My favorite plane to fly out of all of them myself and my brother own is the Big Ugly Stik 60. From a flat spin, to inverted passes 3 foot over the runway so slow it is hanging in the air, it kind of does it all. I do not have to be great on the sticks to put on a great looking show, I just have to be high enough

Any design that makes me look like I know what I am doing is a great thing LOL
All that being said I live in Oklahoma, I look into every purchase and see what kind of comments the aircraft have gotten on handling wind. My stik can go up as long as it will set on the table.
