Growing up Brady
Today I had a wonderful flight. It was my first 25NM solo flight, that means it was the first time that I took off by myself, flew to a destination by myself and then returned by myself.
There isn’t a lot to say about it. It was fun, I was safe, I landed well, I took off well, I used my checklists and I talked to myself as though my instructors were in the plane.
This it the one fun thing… and perhaps I wish it had been explained better to me in the beginning… but the fact is that the goal of flight training is to drill procedures into your head and this is done by constant repetition.
Of course with my luck even though I was flying solo, my instructor “Greg” happened to be in the air also and jumped in and helped me out with a confused tower/approach controller.
Thanks “Greg”!
