hi guys
a dream comes true : I succeeded yesterday my flight test for my private licence !
I've dreamed this moment for 10 years : it's never too late!

I'm so glad that I wanted to share with you and thanks all the generous guys on this forum who helped me.

I still have a "little rudder to practice" and things will come with time

now in route for the commercial and I hope the next good news will be for my first aviation job...

Congratulations!!!

Free advice: when you carry passengers (and it's likely it's their first time in a light aircraft) remember that first impressions last. Please fly gently and smoothly - don't try to impress them and spin them on their first flight, ok?

P.S. When the wind is howling across the runway, get a senior instructor and learn how to land on just the upwind main tire.

thanks for your advice : I just practice rodeo when I'm alone

and I like people to feel safe and enjoying the show

Congrats on a successful flight test! Don't stop hitting the books and it won't be so tough of a journey on your way to CPL. Good job!

Who's your first passenger going to be?

Congratulations!!!!!

Fly safe, have fun, and keep reading the manual of the plane over and over again. Actually, from the ground up is good to keep reading as well.

Good Job!

Leo.
