The PA38 is a very popular basic trainer.

It is has about 4 hours endurance although most 
training sorties last about an hour and a half.

The Tomahawk has the usual
control yoke of most light aircraft.

This makes it easier to use a kneeboard because there is no stick to rub against it. The radio fit is not as neat as in the Robin, and it only seats two, but the metal construction and wide track make it a bit more forgiving for students.
