RE: first solo today!
Ok, update. Took the plane home, fixed it and took it to the flying field. One of the guys was there, and I asked him to watch while I flew. Put the plane up, and he gave me some pointers on how to tell where the plane was. He also said I wasn't doing too bad with positioning. Anyhow, I put her up, and landed her 4 times today, and for the first time, I left a flying field with a whole plane, and some really good advise. Thanks for the advise here.
