There are people who think Aang was a better avatar than Korra and those people are wrong

Aang: stopped a world-conquering psychopath
Korra: stopped two world-conquering psychopaths, the literal embodiment of evil, and the anarchist cell that probably killed Sokka

Aang: mastered airbending by the time he was twelve
Korra: had 3 out of 4 elements locked down before she was five

Aang: distant father
Korra: big sister to Aang's grandkids

Aang: couldn't go three episodes without relying on his past lives
Korra: took down 3 of her 4 bad guys without them

Aang: can't function with hair
Korra: rocked a bi bob

Aang: had to be guided through learning each element
Korra: punched people until she learned airbending

Aang: made a big deal out of going to the spirit world
Korra: more than likely had lesbian sex in the spirit world

Aang: slept with one team member
Korra: slept with two, dated three

Aang: frequently ran away from avatar responsibilities
Korra: embraced hers

Aang: needed avatar state to break bloodbending
Korra: fucking didn't

And, most importantly

Aang: took Toph's shit
Korra: did not

Honestly, there was only one thing Aang had over Korra

Aang grew a better beard
