KR content: I have a bit of stick time in a KR2 and it is a bit more challenging than a Tomahawk. However, the visibility out the canopy in cruise is roughly the same.
Non KR content: I started out in J-3s and Citabrias as well as a C150-150 Texas Taildragger... all high winger, taildraggers. The first time I flew in a Tomahawk (N2401C) I thought I had never learned to fly an airplane at all. It would not behave the way I expected an airplane to behave. I absolutely couldn't land it and it was always ahead of me, especially after turn from downwind to base and beyond. Final was always as if I were a non-pilot and didn't have a clue what I was doing, that's how bad it was. However, many Tomahawk hours later, I found the airplane to be smooth, stable, exceptionally easy to transition up from (to Warriors, Archers, and Senecas, all of which I later flew), and a real buzz to fly photo missions in with the doors off. I also flew my first unauthorized, solo night actual IFR in 01C when doing circuits in it as a student pilot one night when a fog suddenly formed. Good thing it had VOR/LOC/GS and ADF and I knew how to use them. Also good thing the guys in the tower were so stinkin' bored they never knew what happened. And that's all I'm saying about that! The Tomahawk is a very nice little airplane.
