Cool Another 1st solo announcement!

I've been looking forward to doing this post for - er, quite a long time... But I can finally say it, I did my first solo yesterday! It went really well, but the best bit was backtracking down the runway basked in glory. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> . .. .Did anyone else find it all much easier without having some bloke watching over your every move? I got a bit high on approach, but because I was in control, I had no problem doing what I needed to do to sort it out without a fuss and one of my best ever landings (in my limited time so far) followed. Much more relaxing than dual in some ways (even if the whole airfield was watching and I knew it!). . .. .Am now at work. What a contrast. And my colleagues are going to drug me and lock me in a filing cabinet if I get out my log book and point to the bit that says 'in command' one more time... . .. .Anyway, now that it's done, I hope to pass the tedious afternoons joining in with some of your discussions of the finer points!
