Yup, I'm trying to survive the "Well you'll never do that again will you?" events, including: lining up to land on the wrong runway, setting the wrong frequencies to talk to ATC, not watching electric flaps like a hawk, and not seeing traffic until the last minute.

Of course no one else has ever done any of these things right?

I seem to recall somewhere that the statistics show most dangerous phase of a pilots flying is at about 100 hours. Apparently students like me are too cautious to do totally stupid stuff and the training is reasonably fresh. About 100 hours apparently overconfidence sets in.
