Slightly more stable in choppyness possibly, but not particularly any easier

I am rather surprised that you would say this.

The Warrior is clearly easy to fly in the following regards

- more powerful with 2 up
- very easy go around with the extra power
- easier to trim than either the PA38 or the C152
- docile stall characteristics
- more stable in the cruise

About the only thing that is harder than the tommy or the Cessna is the fuel management.

I have several hundred hours in PA28 and regard them as being a great low powered tourer, but ask any seasoned instructor their preference for teaching ab initio students how to fly and I bet most will not name the Warrior.
