No such luck 3Wheels,

Was booked for two hours of circuit solo this week, but didn't fly once, the wind was pumping at the field.. :evil:

Hoping to get 2 hours in over the weekend, the see when I will be signed out for general flying area solo, then do the cross countries.....

I have waited so long, to wait a couple weeks more, won't hurt.... :roll:

Hello Tracer. Congrats on going SOLO. I take it you beat the missus to it. Must be good to not have that 185 killos on the back seat hey. It only gets better from here. Enjoy.

So I got to fly an hour solo, last weekend on Sunday, at the training field. It was great.

Went flying again on Friday, at the training field, again excellent. :lol:

This morning I flew out from Aero57, solo, did 2 or three landings at Aero57, then flew to the training field, for some circuits and touch and go's. returned to Aero57. It was great..... at long last I got to fly out from Aero57 and return there solo. :lol: (^^)

Got 6 hours solo now and hoping for another 4 hours this week.

I am now known as Hemisphere at the school, cause everytime after take-off from Aero57, I am almost at 5500ft by the time I turn crosswind :lol:
