One thing I think you'll have a problem with is _not_ pulling back just as you're about to touch down in auto or running landings. The old fixed wing hind-brain will automatically kick in to "land on the mains" first. It's an urge you're going to have to fight if you want to keep the tailboom in its rightful relationship with the rest of the aircraft.

Plus, as t'aint and Ascend mentioned above, not having a third or fourth hand available for map folding, note taking, transponder/frequency setting, etc will come as a hell of a shock.
