In preperation for "Fozzers Grand Day Out" trial lesson later this month, I have been doing some serious practice in my little Cessna 152 Trainer, CC-KAA.... 8)...!
In these pics, it's over 'Frisco Bay 'cos views of my local airfield, (Shobdon EGBS), are not quite so exciting... Roll Eyes...!
..little Cessna 152's are highly recommended for budding Jumbo 777 pilots to practice on first... Wink...!
LOL...!

Over Golden Gate Bridge....

...

...heading for 'Frisco...!

...

Cheers all... Grin...!

...actually, I've been practicing this '152 stuff for 7 years now, so hopefully it will be "Alright on the day"... 8)...!
...fingers, (and legs), crossed... Shocked...!
LOL...!

Thanks Mate... Grin...!

As always, the biggest problem is keeping the "slip ball" in the middle by using the correct combination of aileron and rudder... 8)...!
Once you have mastered that, all your passengers are happy bunnies, (no more smelly sick-bags)... Roll Eyes...!

If I remember correctly the 152 is like the cub....do something wrong It Will Shake Ya BUT It won't bite you in the ass!

The name of the game is to slip the surly bonds of earth and have fun doing it. Smiley

152 tips:

1) Hot day, need LONG runway!
2) Hot day, make sure there are no obstacles more than 2 ft high within 2 miles of the AD
3) If rotund, DON'T breathe out too much, the doors may open in flight (note: have seen this happen!!!!)
4) If the day is really too hot, take a Warrior or a 172!

Mind you, in all seriousnees they are a nice little aeroplane to fly, just 20 to 30HP underpowered.
Good luck with the real stuff, is a lot of fun!
