Default finally soloed!

I finally got my first solo done today after almost 40 hours. It was fun and it's good to start making progress!

Did you waggle the wings on Takeoff, and get your shirt cut?

Good Job.

Congratulation. What a feeling, isn't it?

By any chance, you did not soloed at RMY? Did you? Because I took one of my student there for a short X - C.
