Default RE: First flight...(smile)...but do I suck???

I know people who have been flying for 20+ years and still need someone to stand next to them.

You did great! Most people need an entire season to solo. Many are doing it sooner nowadays due to the help of Flight Sims. Also, many have already aquired the much needed hand/eye coordination from playing video games. At any rate, a first day solo is rare. You deserve to feel GREAT!
