HPSC 28th Jun 2011 16:03

Don't worry about your instructor taking that as a reference to his/her weight - they're used to it by now!

Though the first is always the best! You will feel this feeling again to a lesser degree, when you start flying other types. You'll find youself with a lot more controls and instruments in the cockpit, and still an empty seat upon which to put your charts. Great feeling!

Congratulations!! Enjoy the feeling!! I remember it well, the 2nd solo will be even better!

SDB73 28th Jun 2011 18:13

Congratulations on a great achievement! Stick with it.. much more to come! :)

SpreadEagle 28th Jun 2011 18:27

You are allowed to fly an aircraft all by yourself now, but you are still not old enough to drive a car by yourself. :}
Who makes these rules???

I still remember my first solo and it was a long time ago. :ok:

Very well done and don't feel bad about wanting to shout about it. You know how to find the pilot in a crowded room? He will tell you. :)

HPSC ........ how dare you !!

Pointless post my butt !! Congratulations ! :ok: Welcome to the club.

Sincere congrats! Your life will never be what it was "before". There's many hurdles and many great moments before you, but none greater than this one - or so it was to me, at least.

Thank you everyone! It was nice to see all of these messages, put a smile on my face reading them!:)

Well done that man!

Fuji Abound 28th Jun 2011 21:05

You will never forget it!

riverrock83 28th Jun 2011 21:31

Well done! I can also remember it clearly - although since it was only a week ago for me - thats not too difficult :D
Aircraft is off for repair now for a couple of weeks though so it will be a while till second solo - wind was across the runway at the weekend :(

Hope you get up again soon!

airpolice 28th Jun 2011 22:15

Well Done!
 
Good luck with the rest of your training.


Feel proud of what you achieved today HPSC. You deserve a pat on the back. Not everyone can do it, now you just have to concentrate on doing it well.
