My first solo YOAS The Oaks

[johnprop]

Yesterday (Friday 23/5) at 9am instructor John asked me did I want to solo? ... What now? I said ... You are ready and I'll be on the portable .. He said

 

The secret for me was the use of runway 18 Right which doesn't have those trees at the southern end and is now the only runway as 18 Left is closed for grazing/farming.

 

An optional takeoff, around the circuit and the manadatory landing with John's only comment on roll after landing ... "stick back" \.

 

Old dogs can be taught new tricks it just takes a little longer.

 

On to the Certificate & cross country endorsement.
