Joined a while ago, just went solo today!

Hello everybody. I have been lurking for a while and have enjoyed and benefited from your opinions and advice. I fly out of yleg (leongatha) in a c150 and and despite the weather over the last 9 months, today i did my 1st solo. After over 25 years of procrastination I am both overjoyed and a little dismayed that i did not pursue this sooner. However at 43 I still have a few good years left in me. I had initially planned to go raa in a j170 but then i discovered a closer alternative in a similarly priced GA. I see myself reverting to raa as a more financially sustainable option in the medium term. I wish you all well and hope to meet some of you over the coming years. - Adam.

Congratulations! At 43 you should have far more than just a few good years left.

Congratulations, Adam! Your first solo is something you will never forget.

Good luck with the rest of your flying, whatever you end up doing.

 

Cheers,

Neil

Good on you Adam!

 

Got the smile off your face yet?

Still smiling. It makes my family uneasy though! They think I am up to something.
