Default Good and bad news...

Bad news first:
I got caught doing 86 in a 65 today. He dropped it down to a 80 in a 65 and didn't give me a ticket for my tint because I was in a hurry for my ppl checkride. First ticket ever. I might fight it, but if I fight it and lose then its going to be 21 over and thats loss of license I think.

Good news:
I passed my PPL checkride!!!! It hasn't sunk in yet, maybe because I'm so tired.
1-1.5hr oral and then the ride. The DE was awesome, he had lots of experience so I tried to soak in as much as I could.

other cool things today:
Saw F16's doing pattern work as I was downwind in class C.
Saw a Herc land, sure smokes a lot.
Gave a few pointers to a group of guys that were waiting for their first ever ppl ground school class
