Type of plane

I fly a Piper Lance.

Most important control

Intercom ISO to shut up my kids.

Least important control

The knob that sets your level on the AI. Never use it.

Never working control

Electric trim.

Scariest control

Landing gear override.

Control I never use

Fin strobe - keep it on all the time so the fin strobe comes on when I
turn on the master.

Control in the wrong place

Rudder trim - I hate reaching down to floor level for it in IMC.

Control I fixate about

Landing gear lever.

Control that impresses non-pilot passengers

The "Gear unsafe" light that comes on while the gear is in transit.
