Default Am I an idiot? Low experience; high performance

My son learned to fly in a twin, constant speed props, gas heater,

finally did go out in a Warrior he said it was almost frightening.
He kept worrying he had forgotten something because there was almost
nothing to do but push the throttle and point the nose..

LOL. I had the same experience after an extended period of flying
nothing but Seminoles. It is a real hoot sometimes checking out
airline pilots in a Cessna 172.
