I could not agree more! This is the plane I learned on -- my wife learned on, my dad, and three of my friends. I taught them to fly using the "Trainer" (linked radios), where I would just take over for them when they got into trouble. They really didn't need it -- this plane is so docile and predictable -- and wants to climb naturally. The first picture I've attached is the Super Cub -- pretty beat up looking -- but I've shown alot of people how to fly with it. The thing is practically indestructable. If you get one -- I would recommend disabling the safety device that is supposed to keep the plane level if you start to dive or fly erratically -- this actually makes the plane harder to fly (my 2 cents worth). This plane is about 7 or 8 years old, with over a hundred flights on it. It and the PZ FW190 (you might be able to see it in the second picture) are the only two planes I have that have brushed motors.
