would this biplane be a good second or third plane?

i think the wots wot would make a good second plane,it has no vices at all and even flies well at slow speed,i do not hesitate to recommend it,i see that a lot of people are recommending planes that are mainly available in the u.s.,don't you look where people come from?all are good aircraft but as rare as rocking horse droppings in the u.k.,great planes are easier to come by over here but are scary expensive,go for it and get a wots wot,you'll be fine.

strangely enough i do not own one but got the job of setting one up and test flying it,don't skimp on the motor[fit the biggest recommended],until you are used to it have smaller control throws than the recommended,remember it slows up quite quick.ENJOY.

Thanks for the link! I tried that but he has no email address anywhere on the web page. only CO. address. I could probebley figure it out but may have to re adjust all the ailerons.
I'll keep trying
Thanks again:

you could allways send a fax or phone him!! failing that write him a letter!!.if it were me id just make my own are the slots there just make them to fit in them i dont think the width will be critical just look at the pics and im sure you can figure it out!!.this plane has no dehederal so just cut them to length and slot em in place.
