how about this
i did my first my first solo after 5 hours 35 minutes.
this was done during my RAF Flying Scholarship, and guess what. im not even a pilot now!
it was in a pa28 g-bbef, blackpool airport, ANC and my instructor was a guy called Chris (cant remember his last name but he liked Theakstons Old Peculiar!)
i spend my days circling the skies looking for villains instead and barking my orders to my civvie driver.
oh i remember the good old days.

Mods, with your permission, I'd like to use this data for my statistics project. One I was supposed to hand in last Wednesday (hence the desperacy). I've taken the data and I'm working on it, but I won't hand it in until I get the go-ahead from ye. And don't worry, the info source will be quoted.
