Got a checkout in a AA-5 Tiger and the Cheetah a very looong time ago and flew the Cheetah several times on longer holiday trips trough Europe and I have very good memories regarding the aircraft.
Fast for only 150HP, good visibility in almost all directions, decent space (ok, for two), straight forward to fly. And you can fly with a partially open canopy, cabriolet style! No nosewheel steering but thats easy to manage and you may turn the aircraft almost on the spot.
