Nobody picked the 2-22 ; maybe you are all too young, though there a re a
few still around. Goerge Moffatt
commented in Soaring mag that the 2-33 was a big improvement over the
2-22, which gives gredence to my
noting it as the worst.
Among the 50 plus types I have flown, the worst are the 2-22 , the
Pratt-Read and probably the Tutor in which I soloed

For what its worth...
In the 70's, I flew as both a student, and later a CFI, in an auto-tow
only operation that had both a 2-22 and 2-33.
As an instructor I actually preferred the 2-22 to the 2-33, largely
due to the weaker airbrakes on the '22. This factor magnified the
importance of proper circuit planning.
