And here it is folks! The first solo t/o and landing to a full stop with the prop still turning. He did a few landings after I pulled the cord that ended in a prop strike, so I didn't count those. After he was shooting touch-n-go after touch-n-go, I just left him alone so he could concentrate one really good landing. I got the camera, turned around and shot this video. He has probably done about 5-7 touch-n-goes at this point, and been off the cord about 5-10 minutes. Talk about awesome! All this in about 5 flying sessions! What a difference a diligent student + real flight G2 makes!

The video is 1stsolo.mov
My camera encodes using QuickTime (tm). So you will need that to play the video.
Also, I will put up some pics of us full-scale flying that same afternoon. It was my treat for him soloing. We went up to 8,000 ft. MSL just for the heck of it.
