Maintaining Straight and Level
Keep a constant attitude and adjust if needed
Check altimeter, airspeed, vertical speed one at a time
Corrections for pitch if needed (do not chase needles)
Trim
Other instruments and gauges (oil, coolant pressure), less frequently

Apply left rudder
No rudder

Apply right rudder
Straight and Level
Changes in power must be coordinate with rudder (“step on the ball”)
Keep your aircraft coordinated (no side slip)
Low airspeed = High pitch and vice versa (constant altitude)
Cruise
Slow
Fast
Pitching up/down with trim
