19.4 hours at age 25. Thought I was capable at about 16hrs but I suppose the instructor has to be sure before letting you go.
Strangely I wasnt nervous at all. I was much more nervous about my first solo cross country flight.
I learned how to fly at a small airfield which does the occasional Medevac flight.
When I landed an ambulance was sitting waiting on the apron
