Pilot Training: Day 08 – First solo airplane flight

Pilot Training: Day 08 – First solo airplane flight
Finally my first solo flight in Utva 75 aircraft happened today. After 9 hours of flight time in 8 days of training my instructor thought I was capable of flying solo and today stepped out of the airplane for the first time. I already had a first solo flight when I was in the glider training so this did not hit me with excitement as that one did but it was still incredible. Incredibly good feeling. Piloting that sturdy machine and landing it back safely is such fun.

Pilot Training: Day 02 – Every beginning is difficult

Jun 10th, 2009
Weather is very hot, and I am toasted. Second day has passed and I have accumulated 73 minutes of flight time in Utva-75 two seater airplane. It's a quite sturdy plane but also very sensitive. I am still getting used to flying which is very different to gliders I am used to. And the preflight and inflight procedures seem to be overwhelming at this point. There is so much to learn about the plane exploitation.
