Hello world (38:30).
Today I realised how scary it is to fly alone. There were no intructors to keep an eye on things and save the day in case of a real emergency; if I crash and burn. My plane was thrown about in the air, by the sudden gusts of wind, unexpected thermals, varying crosswinds on the runway. It was bad but not the worst of conditions, it was my handling. Every landing I made, I wished it was the last, but I had to go the full hour.
Now I'm here, sitting in front of the computer typing this out. Wonderful experience. I'll do it again and again until I get it right. I'd better. Another hour out there in the skies, solo, some peace and quiet maybe, and the adrenalin rush. Sooner or later I'll be immune to all this. Treasure it while it lasts.
