8 hours 5 minutes in a Cessna 150a on an ATC Flying Scholarship at Carlisle in August 1967. I felt ready to go at 6 hrs 30 mins, but my instructor for the next hour or so wasn't qualified to send me solo. By the time it arived I was fed up waiting and hed gone off peak somewhat.

Anybody else with that problem??

Looking at my logbook, we spent very little time on the early exercises, I suspect we must have logged take off to landing rather than chock to chock.
