Cool OK - What is the best plane for initial training?

Just to wind up here a bit ;

What is the best plane in your opinion to gain your PPL (and make your first step in your carreer)?

I have done mine in the infamous airplane that I adopted to be my nick here on PPRuNe. Despite everyone saying ^#@*&^! about the plane , in the end I think its worth the hassle...you survived such a plane , find any other aircraft a wonder to fly and still have tailwheel experience! I know in Brazil people still have the passion for the P-56 "Paulistinha" ( a model similar to the PA-18 , but with less HP). But tailwheel training , aside Brazil , is something really difficult to find around the world. And for the way things have been going , God knows how much the AB115 will hold on instruction.
Here in Holland they use a variety of planes...one that I will be getting my @ss in soon is the Grumman AG-5B "Tiger" , so let's see how it flyes....
In the US , it ranges from C-152 to whatever you can think of...

So..any comments?
