It's For Real

Just to make sure yesterday wasn't a dream, I went by the flight school after work today.  They handed me the keys to the plane.  I walked out, preflighted it and all by my lonesome, made three trips around the pattern.  How cool is that!

I was much more nervous than yesterday.  The runways were turned opposite of their normal direction and there was quite a bit of traffic in the pattern.  So, I didn't want to push it.  3 take offs and landings were plenty for my first solo, solo.

I think the key for me will be doing these solo flights in little "sips" instead of big drinks.
