Hello all,
I've been bitten by the bi-wing bug ;-) I flew a Stearman for a couple hours and really enjoyed the biplane experience.
I'm looking for a fun, inexpensive plane that's already builtand need advice. I'm 5'10" and 210lbs.Will I fit in a Smith mini or Starduster One? I'm not looking for serious acrobatics, just a fun plane with a smaller engine (O-290?) that's fairly easy to maintain.


thanks,
Brian
