it was in my beech sundowner (my avatar)... what do you mean how did he break it to me? how did he tell me i was gonna solo? we were just flyin the pattern and he was like, "ready for me to get out?" and i said it was up to him, he was the instructor. so we landed, he got out and I did 4 touch and goes. then we flew to a diff airport and i did 4 more.

Class D Airspace
ok ok so I wasn't going to make a post about my first solo, but I can't help it, I'm still smiling from ear to ear. TD, I remember you saying once that you sang "fly me to the moon," so when I went up and thats exactly what I did.. haha. I got about 1.1 solo time today, did 8 landings, all in class D airspace.

i donno, i was always under the impression that most people did their first solo at an uncontrolled airport. mine was in heavy friggin traffic... yeah they were touch and goes, all 6 of them, with 2 full stops. not scared, felt like i had been doing it forever.

Solo flights are usually done at the airport where the training takes place. That makes sense does it not? If you were not scared, then you in the minority. Why? Never know what is going to happen when you walk out on the ramp........
