mattmanB182,
This would be the perfect choice for you (Hartmann's bird). I just picked mine up (pictured) a few days ago. It has a 40" wingspan, and the details out of the box are great for a Parkflyer Class bird. Here's a link to that section of my website:

I think I miss-labeled it as a G-6 on my website -- I think this particular plane was a G-14.
I should tell you though -- warbirds are not the planes to learn on. If you really want to learn how to fly, I'd go with a Hobbyzone Super Cub -- or some Bi-Plane (with just an elevator and rudder) of your choice -- because the wing loading is alot less severe. The low wing planes are not very forgiving -- especially the warbirds. They can be in a tree, in the ground, or in someone's car or house in the blink of an eye
