Cessna 172 Vs PA-28
Hey
I have just recieved my PPL from the CAA , and I was hoping to move up from a larger aircraft than the Cessna 152 (Being 6'3 , its a tad uncomfortable I remember having a dead left leg after a 2.5 hour skill test! ) . My flying club has a few PA-28's and one Cessna 172 . I am stuck choosing which one to pick to move upto , I like the high wings and the 172 seems to be a sensible move up from the 152 , but the PA-28 is slightly cheaper to rent and there are more of them in the club .
I was wondering what other people would suggest, the Cessna 172 seems to be easier to move up to than the Piper , and the contols seem to be in a similar place to the 152 which would be easier to get used to, I dont seem to be that keen on having the trim located in the roof!!!
Thanks
Ewan
