It shouldn't give you any problems. When you open the window, hand onto

you will have to apply nearly full left aileron. The aircraft will also

pitch
up a little and require you to adjust the trim. Expect to lose about 5

knots
of airspeed.


I've opened windows in 150/152/172/182 and 206 and never noticed any
roll or need for any aileron and for certain "nearly full" aileron was
not needed. Even with the jump door open on the 182 and 206 rudder or
aileron is not needed. Was something else going on to cause you to need
aileron?

There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing
as simply messing around with airplanes.
