Interesting to know what you thought of the low wing Piper Warrior Trainer, from a visibility point of view?

I have always preferred the high wing Cessna 150/152 Trainers for a good view downwards.....without a wing in the way!... ;D...!

The view is rather blocked on the Cessna when in the Turn to Base, etc....(but a quick level correction of the wing normally overcomes the problem)...;)...!

I like the "all round", panoramic view on the Cessnas in level flight... :)...!

What do you reckon?...High Wing...or Low Wing. for Training Flights?.... ::)... ;)...!

Paul...G-BPLF...and a cute little C150 Aerobat!... 8-)...!

I prefere the low wing planes better because it focouses your mind on the instruments and not the scenery.  Besides its Buffalo, whats to see? ;D
