"I think I am still recovering from a bad $400 IFR practice day in a 172SP while we tried and tried again to get my head around the ADF"

I would NEVER take a guy up in an airplane to do holds or ADF until he had it very down in a ground trainer. Ground trainers are really good for those two things and cost a fraction of what an airplane does.
