[blackdogdeek]

the white zone is for loading and unloading passengers. there is no parking in the red zone.

oops sorry wrong airplane thread.

Best in what way?

Cessna is probably the most recongnizable name to the non-flying public.

General, Civil, Military, or Commercial aviation?

I like the streamlined look of low-wing planes, but personally I like how high-wing planes provide a better view to the ground, so I guess I choose Cessna.

Of course I have never actually flown, so my opinion is purely aesthetic.

cirrus has a small plane with a parachute that deploys when the engine dies. i think thats a nice feature to have.

That'd be a great feature! New pilot flies into the side of a mountain... phoooof, out comes the parachute. It'd make search and rescue easier. Look for the big white parachute next to the wreckage.
