I'm definitely over the hump now - Aircraft Systems Knowledge 90%. 4 down and only 3 to go.

I also took a Tecnam from Basair for a fly yesterday - I can thoroughly recommend them. Aerodynamically clean, simple controls, GPS equipped, comfortable. Very nice. Although they are simple to fly, I think they would reward precision, and thus an excellent training aircraft. They also require a load of rudder, which is a good thing, IMHO.
