My First Solo!

Postby Ravang » Tue Jul 21, 2009 7:18 pm

I got to fly solo for the first time today! I just stayed in the pattern and did three landings. I'll post pictures in the photo's section when I get them. (The FBO owner and instructor took them.)

Congratulations. :) Nicely done.


(which reminds me, 10 years since mine next month! Boy that was a long time ago. Still remember the aircraft reg without looking - that's how much it'll stick in your mind!) :))
