N400JW
This 1974 Piper Archer is very enjoyable to fly. With the constant-chord wing (also called straight-wing or Hershey bar wing), it is extremely stable, not to mention the shorter wings helps when taxiing through tight areas! Although the aircraft could maybe use a spit shine, it flies beautifully and swiftly as well.
