RE: Newbi here looking for advice
Crazy-
Start out with a simulator then go to the "fun plane" thats "easy to fly" then work your way up to the "looks cool"...and if at all possible find yourself somebody to teach you.. I taught myself but I practiced on a sim for an hour or two a day for a month before I tried the simplest plane. Now when I teach people to fly I do it on a GWS Slowstick with a trainer cord. Doesn't "look cool" but it's a "fun plane" thats "easy to fly".
