Thinking of buying a 109A need to know the good the bad and the ugly of it. Just what do I need to know about it, I have had people say stay away from it others say it is good if you know how to fly it ? The wing section is much thicker on the 109A, and pretty poor IMHO. The A will spin of a 50kt turn, and don't ever think of attempting a take-off with water on the wings. I saw one go through the upwind boundary because the under surface got wet from the grass. It has a 2 litre Limbach engine, while the 109B has 2.5 litre.
