My second favorite aeroplane isn't the Yak52 I had a share in, great fun though that was - it's the L4 (Mil J3) Cub I flew a lot many years ago. It didn't have classically 'good' handling, but was joy on a summers afternoon at low level with the whole side of the cockpit open and, flown from the rear seat, most of the aeroplane in front of you.
I enjoyed it soooo much more than the far more 'capable' Super Cub.
But no good if you are in a hurry or if there's any sort of headwind.
