Title: Solo'd...Today...08-19-2008 Post by: Johnny on August 19, 2008, 09:19:58 pm No more tugging at my shirt tail. I finally solo'd today. Including today's time (dual and solo) I have 20.5 hours. Cessna 152 II, N60SX, Pella IA airport (KPEA), runway 16.
I was almost certain that today was going to be the day. I ate, dreamed, daydreamed and thought of nothing but approach speed, round out and flare since my last lesson. Thought I'd be more anxious, but supprisingly to me, I was rather calm about it and had fun. But, boy, does a 152 get up fast without a CFI onboard.

I am very happy for you! I can't help but feel the excitement; I guess it's something all pilots relate to. There is nothing in life that can compare to it. From this point on, things will move more quickly in your training. Soon you'll do your solo cross country, and night flying. Then the written test, then the checkride... Please keep posting about your progress. Thanks. |
