Reality is they were so unpopular that flight schools could buy them for next to nothing and work the things.
Cheap purchase high profits.

I had a couple of flights in one and wasnt impressed one bit.

The C150/152 I trained in many moons ago at least are honest aeroplanes in their own right.

I still enjoy flying low and slow in a C150 They are good camera ships and give a good view down. Frankly none of these small trainers will light the fires not even the PA28.

Old look at the Grumman Tiger which has bags of character speed and good handling.

No aircraft are cheap for training so for the money i would expect something a bit more clean and tidy than the terrorhawk which just doesnt do it for me!

Maybe a bit more modern???
