There are lots of great trainers out there. RCKen put a lot of effort in his list so if you have any real questions about a trainer, my advice would be to take a look but listen to the advice of the experience.

Minnflyer said it all. That's a fine aircraft to learn on. I used it and loved it. It is one tough airplane... I abused mine, like most beginners will (not intentionally, by the way.. I don't want to be taken to task as a trainer abuser.. ) In fact, it's still around after all these years, still training people. I sold it to someone that sold it to someone.. and so on. So, it still lives and still trains.

Also, the "getting started" series that Minn and RCKen put together is just perfect for anyone looking to get started, or to read through even after they solo. You never know what you may have forgotten and need to brush up on.
