JB has that right, it's 95% pilot and 5% airplane... There is no substitute for the pilot's contribution to the flight. We all search for that elusive 'perfect' plane, but as far as I know, no one has ever found it. We keep trying, but 'no joy' so far.

All kidding aside, any of the planes mentioned in this thread will work fine. It is up to you to learn to fly it properly. Trimming, a good coach and good equipment will help, but it is up to the pilot to make the plane go where it's supposed to go.
