For a plane that takes nearly no building time and can be flown in a park check out the Firebird at this link

Is always best to have someone help but with this sort of plane at least mishaps will be inexpensive!

For fuel powered planes a lot of us like the Sig LT40 which is available in an ARF (almost ready to fly) as well as in a kit form.

Here is a picture of about half of the guys with LT40s. I think there are 9 or 10 total in the group, and many of them were converted into Tail draggers.

Quite a few are owned by Experienced fliers. It makes a great "knock-about" plane. Some of us throw skis on them for winter flying.
