Default solo finally

Congratulations. The only therapy for jitters is time on the sticks by yourself!

I had 4 different guys give me instruction when I was starting out. One of the best pieces of advice I got was to go up to the flight line and just watch experienced fliers bring their planes in.

You can learn an incredible amount by seeing how they line up, how they set their glide and how they handle those last moments before the wheels stick to the earth for good.
