Default Another next Kit query

I am currently building a Tiger 60 as my first kit build and have a no longer manufactured Bridi AT6 Texan that I would like to build but want some more experience under my belt first. Since the AT6 has foam core wings I would like to build a kit with foam core wings in a 60-90 size range for practicing pattern or IMAC basic but without breaking the bank. So far I have found the Sig King Kobra that seams to fit my criteria, any other suggestions?

Many thanks in advance for your suggestions.

I always liked the Sig Kouger, it's great flying advanced trainer that was very popurlar back in the 1980s. I put a .60 in mine, like most of the other guys I knew, who had Kougers. Fun airplane and I will get one again someday.

I believe the King Kobra has built up wings, but I will say that the Kougar is one of the best flying planes EVER! It's a fun build too if that helps...

You will love a Sig Kougar !! Its one of the best looking and best flying sport airplanes ever.

PS. I just build the Sig Bonanza. Its also has a foam wing sheeted in balsa. Its pretty sweet too, but get the Kouger.

Forgot to mention above that the Kouger has a foam wing and building it, is a lesson on the process of building foam wings.

I see them on Ebay all the time. Sig hasn't sold them in over 20 years.

The Sig site indicates the King Kobra is "Pre-Cut Foam Wing Cores & 1/16” Balsa Wing Sheeting"
I liked the Kougar too similar to the King Kobra and it has the foam core wings I am looking for but prefer the larger air frame of the KK

Thanks for your suggestion
