The 172 sounds fun!
At some point in my training I'd like to have a go in a PA38 "TerrorHawk" - Although I love my C152, theres something about low wing aircraft that looks cool!
I found Human Factors quite starightforward - I found going through the book ( Im using the Pratt books) and then making sure i got at least 90% consistently using the PPL Confuser before I took it meant I went in full of confidence. Hope to get airlaw out of the way this or next weekend and then its back in the air and hopefully solo after a few hours!
Got the Nav & Met Pratt book last wekeend and had a flip though. Met appears to be a lot to understand but looks very interesting. Will probably become a weather bore as well as a flying bore - my poor wife!
Thats the next step after airlaw for me. I also been using the Transair CBT course for airlaw and found it an excellent tool. Will certianly be investing in the Met one too!
