Are you looking to build one or did you fly one you put together? Let us know what's up.

Cool! You can't go wrong with Sig, Midwest, and Great Planes. They all make great kits. Morris are great too, but more on the advanced side for flying.

Depends upon your level of flying, but if you've never built a kit before, any of the Great Planes PT-series of trainers is intended for beginners....both to building and flying.

Even if you can fly the hottest ARF, and the PT would be dull for you as far as flying goes, it's still excellent for first-time builders. Just follow the instructions exactly and you'll have a fine airplane.

But then, I'm VERY predjudiced.

Great planes does make fantastic kits. If you build a PT, build it with the low dihedral wing option. The 8" total wing dihedral wing is for 3 channel (rudder only) flying.
