So BEagle, it's your graffiti in the aircraft. But as you're the CFI - I suppose it's OK. As for which way to turn the thing, I've been flying the aircraft for 8 years now and still get it wrong!
I like the Cherrytree as an instructional aircraft - far better than a C150/2 anyday. The one thing I don't like is the ASI. the MPH with KNTS in the middle with the TAS calculator is a very busy instrument which is hard to read from the right hand seat. The CAA concluded it contributed to a fatal accident at Bournemouth in 1999 and recommended that it be changed to a single value instrument.
