I am gonna go on my first solo at the end of May. I am a little bit
nervous... Any advice?


Yeah, enjoy yourself!

I was anxious a week before, anxious the day before and anxious at the
exact moment when he stepped out of the aircraft. All that stopped when I
picked up the checklist to restart the engine. The training takes over and
it all becomes pretty automatic.

Being a bit nervous is all part of the normal process.

(Be sure to remember every detail for years of good cocktail party
conversation.)
