Alaska fish & hunt - Patrol or Cub
I’d love an EX2, it much better fits my desired mission legs than my 85-90 mph cub, but just not as much as a Patrol does. Along with being out of my price range.
So as always it’s all about your mission.
There is always lots of talk about something flying like a cub. Not for nothing, I love the way most cubs fly. But I also like the way many airplanes fly. As long as their handling qualities suit the airplane and your mission, then it’s a winner. A Fouga Magister is a wonderfully balanced and harmonious jet to fly. A T6 is really stable doing rolls and loops. Who wants them to fly differently?
I’ve not flown one but from my viewpoint I think an SQ2/3 looks like a great slowspeed airplane.
I’ve flown a bunch of carbon cubs and loved all of them, although the F/EX3 is certainly the choice for sports.
Just brought a Maule M7-235 back from AZ. Seems like a good airplane - not for me but the owner really loves it and is selling his EX2 now. Why? The Maule fits his mission much better.
And he likes they way it flys.
So far the only ones I really don’t like flying are the super light ones - in the kitfox / Rans spectrum. Just too light.
