Nice one, Penguina - it just gets better from this point!. .. .I was flying Saturday and saw a guy out taxiing who joined my flying club at about the time I flew my first solo. After I'd left the circuit on a navex, I heard his instructor make the "returning to xxx, instructor exiting and student to undertake first solo" call. I felt palpable excitement for him as I listened to the calls as he went round!. .. .Redhill Tower (for all their faults?) are also very good about squeezing a congratualtions in during the call - it makes it feel like even more of an achievement when people notice!. .. .Let's do a dance for that long hot Summer <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> . .. .Hersh. . . . <small>[ 27 March 2002, 08:24: Message edited by: Hersham Boy ]</small>
