Well done a great achievement. It is great to hear some good news for a change. The steady diet of doom and gloom is starting to get me down. Congratulations.

Thanks Fella's, took me a little longer than l expected, but l feel comfortable in the aircraft now and hence safer.

 

Means also l can divert some funds back into the Cougar.

Well done Sloper, must be a great feeling!!

 

You said it took a longer than expected, out of interest how many hows from first solo to gfpt?

 

My first solo took a little longer than expected but like you say you feel just that little bit more comfortable.

 

Cheers,

l know its in my log book and its uptodate, but l try to ignore the hours and went when l and my instructor were very comfortable.

 

CFI was very pleased with my abilities.

 

Its too easy to convert hours into $$$$$$$$$$$ spent.

 

l AM going to complete my PPL theroy around christmas, but life happens.

 

regards Bruce

 

 

[Sloper]

Should add that both my instructor and CFI are not fans of homebuilt aircraft and l understand that.

 

Already l have seen things in homebuilts l would not feel comfortable with, maybe some people should not build there own aircraft.

 

A couple of instructor's would be pleased to fly my Couger when its finished and my thoughts are to have as many CPL and testpilot coments before l finish the test period.

 

regards Bruce

Congrats Sloper. Get that Couger finished and you will have some great flights. Well done.

A BIG conratulations Bruce and it is good to see you now diverting funds back into your Cougar, HOWEVER, for the benefit of new people on this forum I think you should explain who your Cougar is.

 

Alan.

 

 

[Sloper]

Or who.

Took my wife for a few circuts yesterday, seems right that she is my first passenger.

Well done mate. Been a few weeks & have you been up with your wife again? I'm assuming your passenger enjoyed the ride.
