Nice one! Isn't amazing that the aircraft is back on the ground in 10 minutes, you are still in the air for 2 weeks?

I've got mine soon. When the weather gets better. Well done! At least you didn't rip the wheels off the plane on landing or did you?

Well folks, what can I say only that I'm still on a high from it! What a great feeling it is, totally unexpected as well, in fact I'd say that was the best way for it to have happened.

And it was great to have the CFI say to me afterwards 'Congratulations - you're a pilot now!'

Thanks for the kind words

Congrats, wonderful feeling isn't it?

After seven months of faffing around due to weather/time/cash I finally managed to go off for a few solo circuits yesterday - my fourth solo flight, but the first since last August, would you believe. Ain't the UK a wonderful place to learn to fly...
