but in all seriousness, this is a pretty good article on the differences between 47 models:

i only have time in a g2, and it would be alright for pilot and passsenger, though depending on the weight there isn't much reserve power for confined areas if you're full on fuel. pleasure to fly though, the manual throttle and low power teaches you to fly. for a private pleasure ship though the hydraulic collective of the g3 would sure be nice...it has a tendency to jump up or down during turbulence even with some friction on if you don't perfect the knee hook around it...
