Posted: Mon Jul 12, 2010 12:37 pmHard to tell, did he used a knife?! I thought scissors were a little safer tradition. My instructor at solo didn't believe in ruining a good shirt, even though I made sure not to wear a good one. I missed out.

Posted: Mon Jul 12, 2010 2:55 pmThank you all for the congratulations
The first two pictures are of a C152, in which I did about 25 hours before switching to a 172 (I soloed at 12 hours).
The last two are from a different flight in a 172R.
EDIT: My crazy instructor used a box cutter... LOL. and that shirt was bought by me on a trip to Greece 5 or so years ago.

Posted: Mon Jul 12, 2010 6:19 pmGood evening all...
Here in Canada if you are at a bugsmasher field and have just done your solo flight not only do you loose your shirt tail but you also get picked up and turned upside down by your fellow aviators and dunked once in the 45 gallon rain barrel.
Tradition here. ;)
