Congratulations! Much better post than two weeks ago. ;)
I hope my road to a certificate doesn't get as bumpy as it sounds like yours has been. If it does I'm using you as a role model. :) |

| Glad to hear it. Now the fun starts. If it were easy, I doubt you'd be nearly as proud to call yourself a pilot as you are today. Congrats! |

Congratulations.
How does it feel when you tell people that your a pilot. I can't wait to get there. I'm going to concentrate on getting ready to solo in the mean time!

As Dresti said, WOOOOHOOOO!! :D
I passed mine 7/19 and know the feeling. It's a fantastic accomplishment which I'm sure you're very proud of. Great job!
What's going to be your first flight? I took my buddy up who I spoke to about training almost every day. 2nd flight was yesterday, landing practice. Next one is the girlfriend. Enjoy my friend.

As far as I'm concerned, once you solo you're a pilot. After that, you're building skills and adding endorsements. |

Not to put a damper on anyone's enthusiasm, but as I see it, once you solo you're an airplane driver. After you've mastered weather, navigation, xc planning, precision maneuvers, etc., then you're a pilot. There is a difference. |

I'm with you. I'll be a certificated pilot by sometime in October at the latest. I'm just gonna keep training, studying and enjoy the ride of a lifetime
