Mith,

I am pretty new to this stuff also but in the last month and half I was around a lot of different pattern airplanes and had a chance to fly an assortment of them. In the two weeks that I spent at his house in Utah we built three different pattern airplanes and went flying every night. While I was there we built and flew a Miss Wind 50, Sebart Wind S pro 2m, and a CA models Visa. We also flew the CA models envision which Andrew had just finished and his NATS airplanes, the krill Spark.

I have to say I liked how all of them flew but if I had my choice it would probably be the Spark first because of the look and presentation when it flies. The CA models airplanes were really nice, went together well, and it was pretty impressive how many Visa's, Passports and Envisions flew at the NATS. I think the 2m Wind was a great flying airplane and probably will see about getting one in the near future since it is a little lower price, unless I can talk Andrew out of one of his Sparks. The only thing I worry about with the 2m Wind is weight, we did not weigh it but both of us were pretty sure it was overweight.

The week before the NATS I did get to fly AJ's 62" Osiris and was really impressed with that, he is getting pretty good with this airplane designing stuff. It flew just like the 2m pattern planes and tracked awesome in 15-20 mph winds. I am definately getting one!!

I think there is a lot of good airplanes out there to choose from but for us IMAC guys it is just a whole different ballgame and we have to start over again.
