I have the Aircat and it's completely replaced my traditional craftsman air impact. My main criteria was decent power, then the configuration of the selector. I just like the Aircat style more than the ones on the back, and the Harbor Freight one is basically a huge hook so it'll grab junk while pulling it around on the floor (which, let's admit, happens *all the time*)

no, see how the direction changer is a huge fish hook?
I have the 1057-TH

Looks like the aircat models use a traditional twin hammer while the nitrocat use a clutch drive.

I do like that nitrocat model ad though. "550 flubs of torque". good stuff.
