Default How to progress to nose in

I did nose in yesterday!

Been working on it on the sim for a couple weeks, and decided to try it on the real thing. I put my training gear back on (in the back yard so nobody wold make fun of me) i just set it on the ground nose in and gently lifted off keeping close to the ground just in case. turns out i did need the training gear, it was pretty ugly, and i started getting nervous so i set her down badly, but no harm, so i took a deep breath and tried again and again till i got past the fear of it, and viola! i did it!
