Wee Ali,

Many many many MANY congratulations!!!!! I am just so SO happy for you

I know you had a hard time all the way through, though I didn't know about the recent problems. But very well done to you for sticking to it where many people would have given up; you're a STAR! Who cares how long it took; this is not a race. Some of the 3 week/45 hr PPLs may be able to fly, but do they know about handling difficulties, hanging in there when the going gets rough, dealing with despair and anger and suchlike? You need all that to be a good pilot. Nothing of what you've done in the last three years will be wasted; I speak from experience as I think you know.

Enjoy your flying. But remember, what you have is a licence to learn.
