Flying model airplanes is the most fun of any RC hobby because you are challenging the confines of gravity. Flying also requires much more practice as to become efficiant with eye to hand coordnations. And this is why I highly recommend a flight simulator when entering the world of RC flight. The price of a SIM. is dirt cheap compaired to cost of just one hard crash with your airplane. I would highly recommend the RealFlight SIM. by Great Planes. You can check it out HERE and some of the reveiws too.

If you prefer your first plan to be more scale like than I would recommend the Champ RTF (ready to fly) by HobbyZone. This little plane is very slow flying and very forgiving for the beginner and having to deal with HobbyZone for any reason is a snap. This plane is also recommended for indoor flight or calm days and suitable for small children and adults alike. Keep in mind that an additional battery and fast charger will keep you flying much longer. Check it out Here and read the Reveiws.
If you would like something a lttle bigger to handle the wind better than look into the Easy Star Electric plane by Multisporm Model Plex USA. This plane is very easy to fly for children and adults and very durable in case of hard landings. Powered by a powerful Speed 400 motor mounted on the top so a hard landing won't break the prop or hurt the motor. The Easy Star flies with little input and has the ability to recover easily. Check it out Here and read the Reveiws.
