Were you given a set of instrument panel cutouts? Great for practicing pre-flight and in-flight procedures. Never under estimate how important these basic procedures are to have burned into memory. It will free up so much head space for everything else during line training. It also makes a good first impression for your training Captain when you can straight up; confidently and timely complete your procedures.

A while back during type conversion, I had cutouts stuck on the side of my garage wall. With a hot summer, I would sit out there, garage door open, practicing procedures. My neighbours thought I had gone bonkers when they saw me out there, seated, facing the wall, poking my fingers at the wall and mumbling to myself!
