Midwest Aerosport 40
Here is a great little plane.
Midwest used to make a bunch of great sport planes and 3 sizes of the Aerosport series.
They made a .20, a .40, and a .60.
This is the Midwest Aerosport .40 kit.
It is a step up from a basic trainer, yet handles so well anyone can fly it. It has excellent wood and is super easy to build.
Flies fast if you want it, yet slows to a crawl for landings.
I used a low end ASP .40 engine and it has enough power to do most aerobatics and has decent vertical performance..
I used this plane to train a student and they both survived intact.
You can still find these planes on ebay, etc. and they are worth every penny.
Enjoy the sport,
Dave
