I would rather be in an Archer or Cherokee 6 (preferably the 6).

Back to the thread.

172's and 152's are great to learn in. Very forgiving. Tomahawk's require a little more work, especialy with trim. Vis is much better and i think it requires just that bit extra skill to fly it well.

You guys with lots of hours in a tomahawk, have you ever looked at the tail during a stall?? It actually shakes from side to side (maybe stalled that little bit to much ). My first instructor got me to look at the tail during a demo, and that is the only reason i don't like tomahawks. Although i do prefer Pipers in general.

Tin hat ready...
