Icebound: CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!
Welcome to the post solo group!!!!!! Now you can finally be SHURE you did not get any "help" from the CFI :-) All the best and keep us up to date Bob Barker N8749S "Icebound" wrote in message ...

They might let me do again, sometime soon. I am a little embarrassed by the number of dual circuit hours to this point... but I don't think that it will increase the national average by too much :-) |
