Default RE: Finally Soloed!!!

brocja01,
Yeah, that problem happens a lot with new pilots. When I am training a student I won't solo them until they can land from either direction. IMHO the student needs to have that knowledge under their belt before they solo because the solo flight basically means the student is ready to fly without the instructor. If they don't know how to land from the opposite direction that they learned on they could easily lose a plane trying, I know because I've seen it happen.

Glad you landing ok.

Just my 2ยข worth
