Personally, I've always had a soft spot for the J3 Cub. It doesn't have a
high-poly model
or an advanced 3D cockpit, bit it something that people with low-spec machines
can run, and it is pretty small (400kb gzipped). It has also been in the base
package
for as long as I can remember, so provides some continuity.

I'm not at my main machine right now, so I can't check, but I think the AN-2 is
about 30MB in size, so probably a bit big for the base package.
