Default I Soloed
Yup, even I can do it...

Yesterday at the Screaming Eagles field in Plainfield, IN (www.screamingeagles.org) I soloed my NexStar. I have had great instructors and the members of the club are all supportive. I've been lucky.

I will fly her for the remainder of the year then next year slowly increase the throws. Depending on how I handle her I may move up to a mid-wing tail-dragger.

Lessons learned: Join a club, get instructors (yes, that's plural), take your time, pre-flight, safety first!

Best Regards,

Richard M. Wright
