I dont usually post on here except to whinge about the wx
...sounds like me. BUT...
Progress at the station - passed my PPL this morning, yay! Now I've just gotta wait for all the documentation to come back but damn, it's a good feeling!

Speaking of ATC... when doing my second solo nav (into CTA), I did at one stage get a little lost after I was vectored off course due to some high-speed traffic that they'd just launched off the same runway as I had (me in a 152... they caught up pretty quick... ) - this knocked my navigation about a bit, ended up getting radar vectors to my next checkpoint, the controller was very careful to ensure that I was happy with where I was and where I was going before he released me - they're there to help, all you have to do is ask!!
