I've been at the stage of thinking I know it all for nearly a year now. I reached 100 hours last December, 16 months after logging my first hour. (In fact, I'm sure I thought I knew it all before I had 100 hours!
)
My 100-hour flight was a mountain-flying checkout - 3.4 hours in a PA18 (including 2 land-aways without stopping the engine), and the only flight I've done so far when my bum hurt at the end of the flight! I love the PA18, and as long as you've got the patience to organise your kneeboard and chart properly, and you're not in a rush, it's great for reasonable-length cross countries. But 3.4 hours is just a little too long to sit on those hard seats with no room to stretch! Fortunately, it's also on the limit of the PA18's fuel capacity!
Ah, memories! Hopefully lots more of those to come... But it was nice to have a landmark flight like passing the 100-hour mark coincide with a great experience like mountain-flying.
