Default Re: C172 Vs. Warrior & DA20

Oh and I'm a cessna person too, but because I can teach holding the nosewheel off the ground in a way thats impossible in the cherokee line.

Try doing a touch and go in a cherokee without letting the nosewheel touch, its hard enough for me, let alone a student.

Also, with cessnas, bad crosswind technique is much more apparent, and its possible to fly with the upwind main wheel on the ground and the other in the air down the runway...also damn near impossible in the cherokee lineup. (a fun teaching tool)
