    I truly enjoyed watching your solo flights. I soloed on June 29, 1965 in a Cessna 150 and will never forget the combination of excitement and fear that I might screw up. The Army sent me to flight school on 20 Jul 1969 and I spent the next 30 years flying a combination of army helicopters and fixed wing aircraft. Congratulations and best of luck to you. Once you take this path you never know where you will end up. The sky is the limit.

    Outstanding!
    It reminds me a lot of my first solo in 1975.
    It was in a 150 and I definitely noticed the increased performance without 180 pounds of instructor.
    And the third landing was just fine.
    You survived and the airplane isn't even broken.
    Welcome to the family, pilot! 😎

    Congrats Angel!! The first big step in your aviation career and one you'll never forget. I appreciate your cockpit habit of reading aloud the checklist item, visually verifying it, and actually touching the switch/gauge/control as you run down the list. Any plans on buying an airplane? If you ever get the chance, come to Oshkosh for AirVenture. It's like Disneyland for aviators.

  • @jimmydulin928
    @jimmydulin928 Před 2 měsíci

    Congratulations. Good job all around. In gusty air work on mitigation of wing disruption. Application of aileron suddenly will not be coordinated and we don't want to turn anyway. On the cross country, which comes next, get trimmed up and then put your hands in your lap. Use rudder only, use correct yaw rather than adverse yaw, to bring the wing back level. By using rudder only to bracket, yaw, direct the nose exactly to a distant target we allow no wing low and thus turn which we don't want. Pilots who use aileron (coordination only comes when we lead rudder) to level the wing will call rough air moderate turbulence while pilots using rudder only in the same air will call it light turbulence. Instructor try Dutch rolls, I think they now call them coordination rolls, to enough bank to overcome the wing warping in the Cessna. They will convince you/students that unless we lead rudder in turns, the nose goes the wrong way initially. "Step on the ball in turns?" "Too late Ethyl." The nose has already gone the wrong way. Good job with the first solo.

    Congrats dude!! First solo is a big day in your flying career. Don't forget to flair, I think you may have a tendency to land a little flat. Your second landing you definitely kept the nose wheel up until the mains where rolling. Try some landings and see how far you can keep that nosewheel up and do a wheelie down the runway. That will help you get a feel for bringing that nosewheel down after the mains. Keep up the great work. Now for some solo CC!

    • @rookie__pilot
      @rookie__pilot  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Very VERY good observation! I do have a tendency to land flat, ive been told by multiple instructors lol. I definitely beed to work on keeping the flare in, the landings were soft but on the 3 wheels instead of the mains!
