Default RE: When does the nevousness stop?

Interesting read. I'll be taking to the skies here within the next few weeks for the first time myself...I do want to put forth that even with cars the jitters are there a bit. Every time I fire it up I'm a bit nervous, and the jitters are the strongest as I slip the last body pin in and set it on the ground. They disappear pretty quickly, though, when I give it a blip and it starts scooting about, and by the time the engine has warmed up I'm cool, calm, and amused.


God I hope I'm not a jittery mess when I'm handed the controls to my plane for the first time...hahaha
