Well done Ian, don't know about you, but I found doing the QXC successfully was a bigger high than first solo:)

I agree with Michael - to me this is the most important milestone on your way to the PPL, so well done you!

Definately agree with the two chaps above - QXC was when I started to feel like a "real" Pilot. Congrats!

Congratulations. Did you do your QXC on Sunday - like me ;-)
I didn't feel as elated as my first solo, but was extremely pleased to get the certificate signed and stamped.
Absolutely exhausted by the end of it - physically and mentally. I did 4.1 hrs yesterday and slept like a log last night!

And yes it really does make you knackered.
My wife had to drive me home after mine as I was so exhausted !
