Plasmech, welcome to the world of PPRuNe! Early on, I asked a simple question and sparked off silly responses, so I think you are right to make a comment. Some people on this forum think they own it and adopt pompous and all-knowing attitudes. Many others however, will try to be helpful.
Relax and enjoy the lessons. It takes a while to get used to flying and you will have good and bad days. The 152 is a good aeroplane to start learning on and you will get to appreciate it. The ones that I learned on were way older than 1982 vintage!
