Wings of Jin-Ji: Patience , only for winners! My first solo!

Capt Nay : I told you many times!
Capt Mani : Round out lower my friend !

These are the words that has been ringing inside my head for this whole month of August. After a number of recurrent flights with the 2 following instructors , as mentioned above , I finally got the green light to fly alone aka fly solo for the first time! The first solo flight of a new pilot comprises that pilot completing a take off, and usually a short flight and safe landing, by him or herself. Flying such a flight is a milestone for all pilots.. Its like when a baby first learn to walk by him/herself. Words can't hardly express how one feels after completing his/her first solo flight, but I can assure you I will cherish this once in a lifetime feeling for a very very long time!

To start off the day, I wasn't even suppose to fly today, I got my lucky break when one of our cadet was on MC, so I took the chance and took his spot to fly with a , 'never-flown-with-before' instructor, Captain Meor. Very nice person to fly with, he ensures a student will learn something each time they fly. Capt. Meor had very simple requirements for me to get his green light for solo : Perform 3 safe landings, you're good to go.

Thankfully , throughout my flight I was unusually calm and I felt like the aircraft belonged to me. So 3 landings done, all safe despite slight crosswinds from the right side of the runway, we got back to the Apron (Parking Bay) , turn the aircraft around, and he gave me a last brief before setting me free with my own wings to fly and off I went.

I actually recorded my flight in flight, but sadly there's some error uploading it to my blog, so I'm just going to 'print screen' some footage from my flight!
