Thumbs up Nice One, Cyril!!

Been down that runway myself a time or two, but my solo was about 20 miles north at Flagler Airport!

Spent WAY TOO MANY HOURS watching new students TRY to get into the traffic pattern on a 45 at New Smyrna and, sadly, lost someone I knew in a crash there about 12-14 years ago. Also did my first international flight from that airport, flying to Walker's Cay in the Bahamas, mon. 3 days of scuba diving later, we reentered the USA and almost had the aircraft impounded, as it was on a temporary registration due to recent purchase!!! Ah, the memories!

Anyway, it looked like a nice smooth rotation and liftoff (looked like you were heading for Fort Myers as the video pulled back!) and the landing looked as good as any I did in the last few days in my A319/320! Well done, sir!

Warning, you have now made love to the worst mistress you will ever have, so try and find someone to pay YOU to do what you just did, at your earliest opportunity!!

Livin' the dream!
