Default My first deadstick!

Today, my second day of solo flight, on my third solo flight overall, my glow plug failed and I had a dead stick landing. It was about 75 feet above the runway heading in the opposite direction of my final approach. I circled the plane around and landed on the runway edge. All in once piece. I was happy to say the least!
