Any PA28 is a piece of cake to fly, stalls like a dream, and is rather difficult to get into a spin.

GREAT trainers and cross-country platforms.

Cessnas are more 'fun' and more forgiving for teaching landings, but not as stable for XC and less forgiving of an uncentered slip ball.

The designer of the Ercoupe, Fred Weick, designed the Ag-3 the predecessor of the PA25 Pawnee.

I wanted to help at an AG airfield when I was a kid but my dad wouldn’t let me because I loved airplanes. Since then I knew someone killed in an AG crash.

Is that the Ercoupe that flies out of Greenwood? Every time I see that aircraft fly over, I have to stop and admire just how beautiful a design it is.
