LM,
  I wasn't offended at all. I just got the impression that you weren't concerned about my CG problem and that I shouldn't have the plane because I called myself a newbie. I guess I should have made it more clear as to my experience level. I'll continue to call myself a newbie/beginner until I fill comfortable going to the field and flying until my neck cramps.  I did do my home work before I purchased it and everyone suggested (like you did) that It would be a better second plane than a first plane.
