Enjoy your first solo as they say you can only do it once. I certainly remember mine with fond memories at Sywell 1997, my instructor got out after asking for the first time if I felt ready for first solo.I said I was quite happy and I was quiet happy and emotional at the same time as I trasitioned away, remember looking at the empty seat too ! and how much power the R22 suddenly had.The last thing he said before he got out ? " remember it's a big airfield don't feel you have to land too close to me when you land ! " got my own back I purposley landed VERY far from him.He did see the funny side.
