Congrats Speedbird on you first solo, a fantastic feeling and one you will never forget, but will forever chase.
I have two distinct memories of my first solo, the first was loosing all use of my legs when the instructor stepped out and told me to do one circuit, happily I did get my legs back when I opened the throttle for t/o. Unfortunately however my second memory may get me into the hall of fame for having the longest first solo flight (15-20 mins). No I didn’t lose the field but I did have to do a go around due to a c152 refusing to expedite a mega long final. Ahhh memories…
