Light single...the Tomahawk (PA-38)....sensitive and responsive, you just wore the aircraft. Good in aeros, although frowned upon.

Twin..the Seminole (PA-44)...straightforward and controllable unlike the awful Senecas 2 and 3. (PA-44)

Light jets..the Citation 2. So simple (and slow)

Bigger jets...the A330-300. Flew properly, nice in pitch and roll, landed nicely on one engine as well as two. Also slow.

Worst...the F-27 in a high crosswind, on the roll-out. Massive rudder and aileron inputs required. The older A321's were pretty shabby as well, poor in roll and yaw, and useless in decel after touchdown. The other 330 (Shed) was a wobbly thing too, in any sort of turbulence or crosswind.

But being paid to fly most of the above renders criticism/praise irrelevant.
