Hi Guys,
Firstly: Yesterday at 18:05 my instructor indeed took control after touchdown and informed me of the big moment to come! After a few checks and a quick talk while taxying back, he hopped out and there I was...suddenly the call-sign was pre-fixed with "Student" and I was on my own!
I did notice the improvement in performance, take-off roll was much less than usual. It all went well and I ended up with a massive smile and a shaking hand to take my Instructor's with after I parked up
!
It was one of the best moments of my life; certainly one to remember!
With regards to me knowing before-hand what to expect: On my last lession I was told that I would've gone alone, was it not for one more exam to be completed...thus I expected it. I was however prepared if he said not a good day for it, so I got in the plane thinking only of the task at hand (good, solid circuits with him still there).
Thanks for the intterest shown in my post, nice to share such a great event with you all.
PS: If you're reading, thanks I.K.
