If you like to hold it a lot- C Series.
If you don't like to hold it a lot- Airbus.
If you like to use both hands- Boeing.

The semi-active sidesticks are a leap forward in situational awareness. The speed-stable control law also helps keep flight crews in the loop, providing a natural feel.

I'm curious to see what the Irkut mc21's FBW laws are like. I only know it will be the first civilian airliner with an active side stick. (Ie: left stick would move in phase with right stick)
I think that's what's lacking to not the Bus and the CS.
