|  Another solo
Well, I just left the ground by myself for the first time this weekend and I'm still feeling high from it!  Never thought soloing would make me feel this way , but I'm sure glad I did it! Now on to the next step right?

I digress.

Congratulations right back atcha, my man! You're right, it's a feeling like nothing else in the world. I thought it was exciting the first time I learned how to SCUBA and took my first breath underwater. It doesn't hold a candle to the feeling of that plane leaping off the runway for the first time when you're by yourself. I was grinning and happily laughing all the way down the runway. The great thing here...we may be in the midst of pilots with tens of thousands of hours under their belt, but they all remember that first solo, every one of them knows how big of a deal it is, and they all celebrate with us. Congratulations again! |
