If you are comparing prices remember Cabair charge based on air time not tacho. A tacho charge will always look cheaper but is it? Also consider the avaibability of a large fleet and full time instructors. It can be annoying if the only plane you fly breaks (and it will )

RE the nervous bit, get the instructor to demo a practice forced landing to you. You will see how well the PA28 flies with no powered assistance. The nervousness will pass and you will enjoy your flying.

The only injury I ever had was when I fell off the wing.
