wadup,
Well i'm quit new too..Well from what i know and have done..You have to start with a trainer and bravo that u have ordered one>
As all have said here a DC 3 is a 'no no' for now. Do not even try it as your second plane for a matter of fact. Twins very different from singles(have never flown a twin b4 but from what i'v heard.)If one engines cuts up there you would need to have alot and alot of experince and knowledge on how to get it down in one or in a matter of fact two pieces!!!
You must fly the trainer till you can master it well for eg. fly inverted,do loops,rolls, know how a plane stalls(even though a trainer hardly stalls)..etc.
Only yesterday did I witness a new flyer who thought he was an 'expert flyer' already crash his new low wing plane on its first day at the field. He was advised by other senior flyers that he wasn't ready yet but after only about 2-3 weeks flying the trainer he thought he knew 'everything' and went ahead.And that was only a low wing sports plane with ONE ENGINE!!!
So hope you take our advise from RCU and not try that DC3 in the very near future alright.
