Come on folks, seriously, arguing about what aircraft is best... I thought we'd all be past that by now.
I agree with DBisDogOne - if you're learning then what does it matter? Do you miss what you haven't yet had? I speak as a mere student (on PA-38) myself, only a humble 25 hours.
P.S. Muchos bullshyte spouted about the Tomahawk as usual, nothing wrong with it, read the POH and fly with an instructor first as you would with any other aircraft and all is OK. And I have never heard of tails falling off... utter mince. Most people who smite the Tommy (e.g. on these sorts of threads on PPRuNE) have never even flown one. I wouldn't dare criticise any other type because I've only ever flown the Tommy (well, OK, I had a couple of goes in a G115E as an Air Cadet but that doesn't really count). Why can't we all just get on here?
