I would like to put in a vote for the 24 Pan...truly an excellent eyepiece, but maybe outside your budget. I actually bought mine for the very reason that it was the 1.25" with the widest field of view (ie. longest focal length) in the F5 200mm Newt, but with the C11 it has now become my most used eyepiece!
As for AFOV (the other scope will give similar ratios):
32mm Plossl
50 / (1000 / 32) = 1.6 degrees
26mm Meade
60 / (1000 / 26) = 1.56 degrees
24mm Pan
68 / (1000 / 24) = 1.63 degrees
The Pan has the widest field of view, but not enough that you would notice. The next widest is the Plossl, but will have the smaller view, so you will see "more" but it will be smaller. The Pan would actually cover the largest field, and everything will be larger...if you get what I mean. But if you look at the figures, there is not much between any of them, they will all effectively fit in 3 Moons with a tad to spare.
