I am looking to buy a kit, something not so hard but not something I could have done in no time...Any suggestions?

Well that's a little vague. I'm assuming you want to build something scale since you put the topic in this forum.
What size are you looking to build? i.e., How much are you looking to spend? What style airplane? Warbird? Recreational? Aerobatic?
Do you want it to be a simple 4 channel model (such as an aerobatic would be; i.e. Extra, Sukhoi, etc.) or a complex model with flaps, retracts, etc.?
We need more information. B)

A simple four channel, yes I do want a scale plane and how much it costs dosen't matter. At least as of now..

I'll put in my vote for a couple of Carl Goldberg models, the Super Chipmunk and the Sukhoi. I've always liked both of those planes, especially the Sukhoi. And you just don't see too many of them in the current age of Extras, Edges, and Yaks. :thumbup:

I was thinking of the sukhoi.. the chipmunk would be a little more challenging to cover.

Well go for it. And I'll present to you a covering challenge with the Sukhoi as well:

If I was to get on it would be that sukhoi, but not to sure if it would look like that one in the picture. What would I cover it in besides monokote? could I glass it and paint it or would that be to much weight?
