First Solo

Recommended Posts

Ahhh, good to see a C172R.  That's the same type of plane I had my first powered solo flight in - N172WG on 7/20/2002 - my 16th birthday.  Well deserved my friend, I wish you many more safe landings as Pilot In Command!

Thanks Jeff! I wish you many safe landings as well!

Hehe thanks guys!! And honestly the sheer joy and excitment overpowered my nervousness! I kept my cool and also kept the biggest smile on my face!

When you'll do your first solo, you'll be way too content to even feel nervous  :(

So much truth here.  I'll never forget my first two solos (soloed in gliders first).  Being there alone for the first time, the realization that you are a PILOT, is a feeling like no other.  Takes a while to sink in, but come to think about it, the fact still hasn't sunk in for me.  Brings a smile to my face every time!

Definitely, it's an irreplicable feeling of joy!  :)
