Check out the C150/C152

Suggest you select the C150/152 option as both are good basic trainers. Generally you should train on an aircraft that going to make you work!.... such as the C150. I currently instruct on the Grob G115A which will make you work hard........ in particular perfecting your landing technique and good judgment, Aircraft such as these have just about the right balance between Power and Performance, This will allow you to appreciate even more the upgrade to C172 and higher performance aircreaft in the future. Pilots transitioning onto the C172 from the Grob find they have a good grasp of the basics and safe aircraft control. The same can be said of the C150/152.

Wishing you Safe flying for the future.
