Which Microlight

Hi,
I have 22 years of experience in Military Rotary wing flying (Navy aircrew) and have decided at a ripe old age of 48 to take up Microlight Flying (weight shift) I am about to embark on an intensive residential course in October.

My question is:

I want to buy a cheap (up to 3K) weight shift aircraft which is
  • Forgiving with no nasty traits
  • 2 Seats
  • Readily available spares

Having read numerous adverts, I think that I am looking at a Pegasus but would like advice on Q, XL, XL R, 447 or 462 engine etc etc.

Apologies if this has been asked before.

Any advice is welcome

Thanks

Steve
