That is right, my man~ my first solo flight today at Denton Municiple Airport, Cessna 152.
the day started off very windy, even though Grant (my awsome instructor) have 100% confidence in me making solo, the school has some restrictions on first solo student, so I didn't think I was gonna solo today as the wind is off the limit (15kt and gusting 20)..
Anyway, we were bored in the school, I was waiting for my ground school to start in 1 hour, I checked the weather again just for the hell of it.. 13kt @@, ok....maybe we can make this happen!
still, 13kt coming from 20 degrees off my nose, so a crosswind landing will be performed, and i think I have that down, Grant and I jumped into the plane, and do 1 pattern just to make sure I'm REALLY ready, he jumps out of the plane and wishes me luck ! there it is, my 3 landings as PILOT IN COMMAND! MY MAN~ the traffic got kinda busy all of a sudden, the tower wanted me to do this do that wait for this give way to that, hold short because there's a DEAD EAGLE on the runway... dude...this is my solo, does this have to happen right now ? haha, but anyway, it was funny, I creamed in the cockpit on my first takeoff, haha, Grant said that he did that too when he first soloed, I was nervous, but also confident, i know what I had to do and when to do them, this is a very special day and I will remember every second I spent in that solo for the rest of my life !
so, I guess this checkpoint is behind me now, i'm looking forward to more flights that are forthcoming and some cross country flying@@
