Lets not beat up on this guy too much. After all, he stated "HE wrecked his ERcoupe" The airplane was not at fault. I am sure he feels bad enough and has (hopefully) learned a lesson. As far as his replacement for the ERcoupe, I suggest that he get a whole lot of dual before he goes off by himself. The Taylorcraft is nowhere as near forgiving as the Coupe.
