I guess Since your there, you could leave and then fly in. Just to get the experience.

Brady, you sure make flight training look fun! I just realized it looks like I have the same headset as you do. I bought the AVCOMM AC900 and I really like the fit and feel. I am sure looking forward to the day when I have the confidence needed to solo. Right now the thought scares the daylights out of me because of my inexperience. Your on your way man, God Bless!

That's great work mate! There's nothing like being thrown a curve ball when you're flying! Your weekend solo flying was pretty good! Not long now before your text, I hope you get to video the whole thing and I also hope that you keep up with the video blog. Every time I watch one of your video's I get that passion and urge to head down to the airfield and go flying!
During my flight test a few months back my examiner threw something at me that I had never done before or expected. As always our circuits are left hand circuits so after a touch and go at about 200 feet he told me to do a non-standard right hand low level circuit. I just complied without thought and pulled it off. If you can deal with something totally unexpected from either ATC or another aircraft and do it without skipping a beat than you can pretty much do anything.
I'd feels more than safe flying with you mate, you're doing well, keep it up!

I have followed your blog since the beginning and I have enjoyed watching your progress. It has been my dream to fly since I was in high school. Now that I am almost 37 yrs old I am finally going to follow my dream and start my private pilot training within the next couple of weeks. I have selected my instructor and I am excited to finally make my dream a reality. Please keep the blog going as it has inspired me to follow my dream of flight!!

You look very confident and at ease now that you have a few hours of solo time under your belt. I can tell that it has all come together for you quite well! Congrats.
Today was a big day for me...at 13.5hrs of flight time I did my first solo flight. It was 2 touch and goes and a full stop landing for a total of .4rs. not a lot but enough to feel like I was a pilot for the first time. It was a great experience that I'll keep with me forever. And I am definitely with you on the floating on landing with no one in the right seat issue! The Remos just wants to keep flying and flying.
Dual and solo cross countries and a bit of solo time along with a bit of practice/prep and I should be ready. Estimated completion date is Thursday of next week.
Good luck with your preparation and looking forward to reading about your successful check ride!
Randy

It's quite normal here at KBED to be told you're number 5 or 6 to land! :)
Solo is behind me but endless rain in the N.E., only 2 flights in June. Watching Brady's videos is just about my only flying this month.
