First Solo

So this was it, after practising it was time to go it alone. Eve casually stepped out and before I had a chance to change my mind I was alone. Just one circuit to land.

I felt very responsible as I completed the checks and lined up. Take off was quick and smooth and the aircraft seems a lot more fun without somebody else in it. The time went incredibly quickly, and before I know it I was cleared to land on my first ever solo landing. If ever there was a time in my life to really concentrate and not cock things up, it was now.

The landing was the best I’ve ever done, and the tower was pleasent enough to give me a well done before giving me taxi instructions.

What a feeling!
