Hands up all those who did their PPLs in the UK in a Cessna 152 and ever laid their eyes on a full POH!

These are about as rare as a Shakespeare first folio. The type is all wonky like it just came off the trial run for the 15th century(?) Gutenberg printer. Reads somewhat like the instructions for operating a washing machine. Did you know for example, that the proper way to ditch a 152 was to descend at 55 knots and land with a level attitude? And that the way to stop a spin is simply to let go of the controls? And if you find yourself in IMC, then fly with your feet?
