A great Sunday - my first solo

All,

Yesterday saw my first solo!!!! Despite not having done my air law exam my instructor at Northumbria Flying School sent me up. Light winds right down the runway with great visibility meant conditions were perfect. I was held in orbit for about 10 mins which was a bit nerve racking, the whole circuit took 15 mins.

On landing my instructor then made me do my air law - which I passed! What a great afternoon.

What a totally fantastic experience. It only sunk in about two hours later.

I want to go up again, again, AGAIN!!!
