I've flown most of the Grumman line of singles and the Cougar. They are the most fun, best performing (for their class) airplanes out there. Most of my time is in the Tigers and IMO they are the best low performance (180hp) fixed gear, four seater out there. I have a little time in the yankee and it's a great airplane, however, deserves a little more respect than a 150/152. The main reason is very short wing, which leaves stalling characteristics with a little to be desired. Go look at one from the front and the wing just appears to be small. I know it can be done, but I don't like the idea of using the AA1 series as a primary trainer.
If you are looking at the Grumman two seaters check out the Lynx. With more HP's than the Yankee it a better performer and great fun.
