Hi,
I'm not sure if I'm in the right place so please forgive me if these questions and commentsare a little dim witted. Here it goes:
I am not a builder...changing oil is not a problem but beyond thatcould createa problem.
I am also a low time pilot with about 100 hoursin 172's and about 400 hours in gliders. However, since my first ride in a Stearman I knew I wanted to fly biplanes. I also fly only for the joy of flying and nothing else. I am thinking of puchasing my first airplane of any kind and am hoping for any advice that someone is willing to give me. My initial 2 questions:
1. Would someone care to suggest on whatwould be a good first time airplane? I prefera 2 place with between 150 and 200 hp.Gentlebut something I would be able to grow a little with. I also have a budget of between 30 - 40k.
2. Should I even be looking at a biplane with this budget andmy low hours.
Thank you!
