The nexstar is a great plane, as see my sig

My only advice is to always check the plane over, screws and all. Range check's and such. And disconnect that silly light stabalizer. I love the speed breaks and the wing tip thing a ma gins or what ever they are. removed the speed breaks after 5 flights, the wing tip parts by the end of the year.

I learned to fly on my own. I don't have access to a flying filed. I spent 40 hours on the sim before it went to the air. I played with it on the ground for another 3 hrs before taking off. Checked the engine, re-checked so no flaws.

I guess attention to detail is what helps make a succesful pilot.

I think a set of stealy balls and a young heart may have played a small roll ( sry if I offended anyone )
