I went on of my first solo sorte today, great weather good landings & I found the airstrip, which was a bonus. Pete

I'm 6'2 and 110 kg & fit into a lightwing or savanna easy enough Pete

Looks like I have a plane to take to Old Station, I will be there. Pete

Thanks Kaz, That sounds like some good advice, I'm looking at an Avid Flyer (any thoughts on them would be a help). How is the new plane? Pete

HI All, Yesterday was the first time my CFI let me go up without taking him for a couple of circits first. I did 5 touch & goes departed the circit area then rejoined for full stop, had a bit of a talk, then of for more t&gs, I could'nt have been happier with the landings everything worked well, makes you feel like a pilot when you are trusted to do it yourself. Pete

Hi All, I am trying to find a flight from brisbane to Latrobe valley airport, do'es anyone know if there are domestic flights into there & where do you find them, I have tried Flight centre & a few others. Pete

Hi all, Well it finaly happened, I went on a nav with my CFI & when we arrived back I was about to do some solo circits & he said that the time had finaly arrived "Ithink I will sign off on you today". It caught me by supprise, but those next few circits felt so good. Well all I need now is to buy a plane to fly. A bit more training to get my navs finished & Pax endorsment, But I felt so proud with what I had already accomplished, at times I thought it would never happen. Many thanks to all the people on this site who have offered advice. Pete:happy dance:
