8000 hours, 4000+ jet, an ATP, two Boeing type ratings [727 and 747] and 2500 hours of dual-given in PA-28's and PA-44's. Plus 250 hours in 172's.

I'd pick the Citabria! It's underpowered, but more fun than the 172.

Frankly, if I was going to pick a personal airplane...I'd probably buy a Piper Cherokee 140. I just like the way the old "Hershey-bar" wings fly.
