2nd plane
 
I have finished my first kit, a trainer and looking forward to start new new one that I can take my time with while I learn with the trainer.

I really want something along the lines of a Goldberg extra, Sig 120 or a great planes Extra 300 in the 60's.

I am very experienced in wood working and have done a lot of detailed work on other projects.

I am seeking some direction on something I can slip a .90 2 cycle in and move up later in 2003.

Building any of them will be fun. Look at Midwest's Cap and Extra also.

As far as flying goes, I would suggest you knock out a Sig four star 60 or 120 and figure out how to fly it well before you attempt to fly the others. The four star is pretty durable, not bad to repair and a good plane to smash around while you nail down low wing handling and tail dragger technique.

agree with ctdahle,as far as a second model to fly while on the learning curve,Sig Midstar,Great planes Tiger,most any stick model and there are others just as good or better.

the Golberg extra 300 is a great proyect, you will put your building skills to a test, it is a mid wing, and it stall speed is lower than a LT-40, it will fly gooood with a 90 2-s, build it along with a GP supersport or sig 60 4* and fly it as your 3rd plane!!
enjoy.
