Less than 2 weeks after my long solo cross country, I passed my checkride yesterday. I'm now PPL.

In all, it took me about 1 year, around 55 hours, and just over 100 landings. I haven't added up the dollars yet (perhaps afraid to see that number!)

The discussion on this board definitely contributed to my knowledge, understanding, and presentation going into the exam. Everyone here deserves a little piece of gratitude. Thank you.
