First Solo

[Guest mike_perth]

Well today I finally made it to my first solo

 

Weather was on my side and after 3 nice landings and good circuits my instructor said I think its time I get out and let you go it alone - and I can say it was an amazing experiance and one I dont think Ill ever forget.

 

Below is a link to a video I have posted on youtube of the circuit filmed from inside the Tomahawk!

 

 

Very Happy Mike!

Congratulations "very happy Mike" well done.

Congrats Mike :)

 

Just out of curiousity, how did you set up/attach the camera?

Nice landing Mike, and very special to have it all on Video, something you can always go back and watch, and treasure.......................

Awesome work mate, it's such an awesome feeling, think we'll have to head up to The Gate soon for a few celebratory drinks, you up for it?

 

Congrats Mike :)Just out of curiousity, how did you set up/attach the camera?

Mike's got the set up I used for my solo Laz, it's a top set up of a window mount GPS bracket with a home made bracket to fit the camera into. Basic but very good set up, thinking of doing the same myself!
