Dont worry!
Enjoy it, as others say it is the best feeling in the world.... Close to the virgin bit
I also remember whooping and laughing and cheering to myself!
I thought it was just me that would do that haha
It will build speed faster, climb faster and feel much lighter. It could take a tiny bit longer to slow down.
Dont forget carb heat, flap speed range and airspeed! Do those (which you obviously already do) and it will go beautifuly!
Your instructor would NOT send you if you were not capable... Its more than his jobs worth!
Take it as a compliment.... Its a very nice one... Welcome to the world of being a captain
I remember my instructor just hopping out on a circuit lesson and saying "take your time, enjoy it and DONT bend it!"
Haha made confident and laugh, dont think i pood a little bit either
