Did my first flight!

After seeing this post: I did my first solo :D I guess it’s okay to share personal aviation stuff so check this out:

For my introductory flight they actually let me have the takeoff and some banks in the C172, it was a lot of fun and I’m definitely going to continue doing these lessons!

Very awesome! Although, you should move this into the #real-world-aviation category :)

[Marshall_Hilfman]

Gotcha. Doing it now.

Whoops, looks like someone was quick and did it for me 👍 @Levet

Congrats! How did handeling that yoke feel?

[Marshall_Hilfman]

It was came pretty easily to be honest. Moving up and down was a little trickier than the 20 and 30 degree banks.

This is awesome! My first flight is what truly got me hooked on aviation and I’m glad it seems to be the same with you! Stick with it, put in the work, and get that license! I’m rooting for ya :)

Oh god I’m jealous.

@ewanfleming well I mean she was doing the rudder pedals… lol. Also when I started to veer left when rotating and almost hit a runway light she pulled on the yoke a bit. XD Slight exaggeration…

I bought my own Cessna, it is a great plane. I use it to Uber people around the islands of T&C
