If the runway is wider than it is long, rethink your circuit.

Went solo this morning guys!! Did 5 circuits while the captain watched from the ground :) Very interesting how differently the plane performs with only one up, take off roll was SUPER short, and the descent on final quite gradual. Greased the landings though and coach is pleased, says he didnt sweat at all, so all around still smiling!!

Happy landings chaps :)
