That they will.

I'd wanted to learn to fly since I was a kid. When I finally was able to take lessons, my first flight was in a Piper Cherokee on a cold, blustery day. Gusting winds, clouds... we got airborne and it felt like I was in a tin can floating on a windy lake. I started questioning the wisdom of my choices. It got a lot better after that.

The RV-12 has pretty low wing loading, like most all LSA, and as a result gets tossed around a bit more than a larger, heavier plane. It's also agile and a joy to fly. I know, I bought one about 7 years ago. Enjoy your training!
