Congratulations my freind. Did they cut the back off of your shirt? I will never forget sweating all over my throttle and mixture levers. Good luck with the rest!

Not much of a poster here but a very common lurker. Made my very first solo today! Started out with the instructor and did three trips around the pattern. Then he asks me to drop him off, gets out, and says "All yours." It was one of the sweetest moments ever. And I know everyone always says that airplane rockets off the ground when youre the only one in it, but you never really believe it till it actually happens to ya. But yea ended up doing three solo takeoff and landings.

Anyway thanks to all of you on here for posting great stuff from which I have been able to learn much. Cant wait to get on with the rest of my training!

The same exact scenario here. My three "touch and goes' were unbelievable. It was like I was landing on cloud or something. My instructor was stuck with awe. I don't know where i got it from, but at first I was having troubles with my flaring, but that specific day, it was unbelievable. Congrats.
