Diamond Katana or C172?

[FN FAL]

Why so expensive? I hope its all brand new and as decked out as they can possibly be...and they should atleast include the KY with that price.

The Katana was always almost twice as much as the 152 as far as rental price at our FBO. I think the 152 was almost 40 bucks an hour and the Katana was 63. Even though there was an employee discount on the 152, bringing it down to about 35 bucks an hour, I still chose the Katana over the 152.

A 172 changes the whole picture. I can take four up or I can take camping gear. You can't even get close to that with the Katana...or the 152.

I wish my FBO still had the katana, but some body ground louped it the week before I started lessons.

Can you ground loop a tricycle gear? How did that happen?

Wait, how do you ground-loop a tricycle airplane? I mean, I am usually behind the airplane but that's a bit rediculous.
