Guys the Cessna is not that bad of a plane for a second bird. If you have been flying the trainer for a season now you can fly the Cessna.
A: It is still a high wing aircraft
B: It still is a tricycle gear airframe
C: You dont have to fly it a mach 3 to keep it in the air
If you fly the H9 Cessna if will float "a bit" but that is why you will need to learn how to use the flaps. This is a natural progression from 1 aircraft to another. Dont let the other guys scare you away. If you do crash (we all have done it) just pick up the peices and do another.
