I love this! You did a fantastic job. All of your landings were flawless and you kept ahead of the plane. You're a fine pilot! I still remember my first solo like it was yesterday, cherish the memory. :)
Bravo! I did my first solo back in the 80's from that same runway! But I got the full, "taxi in position and hold" so you got to look down the runway and realize you were literally about to take your life into your own hands. You did great - I hope you enjoy flying for very many years to come!
I was a flight instructor for many years and eventually went on to fly for a major airline. My advice to you is keep flying the airplane as beautifully as you do. As far as mistakes, unfortunately you’ll make some more. Even with 17,000 hours I’ve made mistakes that I’ll take to the grave. Keep up the great work my friend!!!
Im a flight instructor in so cal, and all I can say is you are a natural. You did more than an exceptional job. You are amazing on the radio, you had perfect control of the airplane at all times, and managed the stress of a first solo with complete grace and confidence. You will be an amazing pilot! Very well done!!
This vid just popped up in my feed. Nice! I enjoy watching first solo flights. Every time I watch one, including yours, I recall every detail my first solo (in 1983) as though it happened yesterday. I'm sure you'll never forget this event.
Very nicely done! the take offs, patterns and landings were all well controlled and precise, the approaches, touch downs, reconfiguration and climb always were all very nicely executed, smooth and controlled, precise runway use and staying centred throughout, nice hold offs once landing the mains, I could not really see anything not too like, handled like a pro!! there is never any shame from making mistakes, the art is realising them and and applying what is learned to eradicate them, good pilots critique their performance even with 20,000 hrs in, happy flying!!!.
I remember my first solo. The traffic pattern was right traffic and when I looked over to the runway as I entered the downwind, that’s when I noticed the right seat was empty. Most of the time on solo you do things so mechanical to your training that you don’t really comprehend that you’re all alone. It’s the euphoria after you land that you did it that will be the memory forever. Remember, you can’t feel the airplane with a death grip. Max, two finger, like your taking a shot; which you’ll do later on because YOU SOLOED!! LOL!
Congratulations on your first solo. Well done. Just watching this takes me back. I did my first solo at the same airport, RWY 19 back in 1995. I wish you much success!
Nice job! I've been flying for 40 years and wouldn't have done anything different. You have a bright pilot future for the taking! Good luck and see you at the flying field.
What mistakes? You did an excellent job, stayed ahead of the plane, sounded like a pro on the radio, and of course, good landings. You belong in the cockpit -- best of luck for a bright future in aviation.
As someone who's just starting out in their pilot Journey ( literally just made the decision about a week ago). Seeing what other student Pilots have gone through and hearing the story of Pilots who've already gone through it, helps to keep me motivated as well as giving me some information I'm going to need to know. Keep up the good work.👍
I made my first solo in a Cessna 152 as well ... I remember when the controller told me "left hand downwind" when i had done a "right hand" just before with the instructor on board. Dam' ! And then the (thanks god)scattered clouds appearing in the downwind leg.... Well... Compass + Horizon came handy. I was glad i had some good training and also glad to land. My advice : don't be in a rush to get your license in the summer and be without supervision in the winter. Either pass the exam in winter Time or take hours with a flight instructor again in winter time.
You did fantastic. When I soloed, it was in a Cessna 152 and my instructor taught me to land with Full Flaps. I remember how the Airplane Jumped off the runway and climbed so fast without the extra weight of my flight instructor. My first landing was perfect, I added power for the Go part of Touch and Go, and the airplane seemed sluggish. It wasn't accelerating, like I had thrown out an anchor. I looked out the side window and I was 10 feet off the ground and going nowhere. I had forgotten to raise the flaps. So, I kept it pointed down the runway and slowly raised the flaps an increment at a time. I was climbing like a rocket again. The Cessna 152 just didn't climb out of ground effect with full flaps on a hot Texas day. What fun that was. Have fun on the rest of your adventure getting your license.
Thank you! Oh wow! I experienced something similar when the flaps wouldn’t come up after take off in a touch and go. It was startling at first but luckily they eventually came up.
I like to watch golf. Seeing the pros discuss their coming shot with their caddies, taking 5 minutes to figure things out---I'm impressed with the number of life and death decisions one must perform just for one flight. Great job.
THIS is how a aviation video should be done! I have seen so many other potential great aviation videos like this, but they get RUINED by stupid loud background music, so you dont hear anything but annoying irrelevant noise. Bravo! Well done!
My 1st solo was a surprise. My instructor and I were doing circuits as usual when we exited the runway I was prepping the ship for another takeoff when my instructor hopped out and said do one circuit and park! Almost fainted! haha You already look professional! Happy skies, dear! :)
Haha... My first solo was similar :) My instructor (EU champion :) ) after a couple circuits just go out saying : 'im tired to fly with you - next circuit you are solo' :)
Outstanding. Confident, capable and in full command of that lovely little C152. Great job in the circuit and comma with tower. Greased it in all 3 landings. Never behind the airplane. Mistakes? Nah. Everything you slipped up on was compensated for quickly and beautifully.
Congrats! It’s a great feeling doing your first solo . Also a surreal realization you’re alone and are the only one responsible for getting it back on the ground safely . I hit some moderate turbulence on my first solo and almost pooped my pants
Just saw this come up on my feed. As others have said, you did a great job! Kept ahead of the game and flew the aircraft which is the number one priority. To fly a first solo in what appears to be busy airspace, is quite and achievement! Don't lose sight of what you did - it was great. I envy you because you are doing something I can never do. Well done. All the best from the UK
Haha😥 your error! As a first solo, seems to me, a nice job. Although, touch n goes on 1st solo makes my palms sweat 😅. Taught a bunch 50 years ago, and think I was as excited as the new student. I performed the student always full stop landings. You handled very well. Can’t remember how many times I called the wrong name in the 50 years of flying 🫣. Always critique what you do, learn, and love that third dimension experience. ✈️
I was waiting to see your reaction on your first take off without the weight of your instructor in the plane. You handled it like a pro. I did my solo in 1986 and you reminded me of how I felt at that time. Keep doing what you are doing because I can tell you love it with a passion!

That and I was a bit hesitant (probably 20-30 seconds hesitation) on my initial takeoff, to the point where the tower asked me for a radio check to make sure I knew I was cleared for take-off. Hey, I was a 17-yr-old kid, scared out his wits, and was making sure I had everything right! Oh, and back then - NO HEADSETS! Just the scratchy speaker in the wing root by my left ear. To talk, I had to pick up the corded microphone, just like an old-fashioned CB radio. (damn, I'm old... ;) )
Well done, nice landings! Congrats from an older pilot in Australia. I hope you learn well and go far. I'm a fair weather pilot but unable to fly anymore due to medical issues. I can just enjoy through you youngsters.
Damn, you nailed every landing....so cool to see. I still remember my first solo in 1986. CFI made me park and got out of the AC while the engine was still running and told me I was on my own. It really didn't dawn on me until I took off and no one was in the right seat--then I was nervous but just did everything like I'd been doing it with him there. What I find amazing with you is not only your greased landings but you stayed on centerline each time. Congratulations and since this was a year ago I'm sure you've gotten at least your PP cert now :)
This video showed up in my feed today. My solo will probably be this weekend, so great timing. Your skill AND sense of humor made for a great video. Your keen sense of humor comes through and IMHO that shows calm and composure, both skills important for a pilot. I absolutely loved these moments ; @4:03 Other a/c was responding to a traffic call looking for your a/c and said "in sight...he's just about to land" and you commented "she" -- now that shows being calm, full situational awareness and again a wonderful sense of humor. @4:11 "Hey yo!" right after your 1st landing; a proud moment that made me smile and laugh. @4:38 After your excellent ATC response -- "Shubaluba...7CB".

Oh yeah, I liked your "Playing Microsoft flight simulator" video, too.
@@gravitysdaughtr Can you genuinely learn to fly pretty well from the Microsoft flight simulator “game”? Because if so then I’m pretty confident of getting my license to fly lol!
@@737simviator obviously we have some slow people here who can’t read sarcasm. Do you know what they say about people who can’t read sarcasm? Look it up baaaaahahahahhahahahahaha!
Great job! Calling the wrong airport is very minor. And you corrected it immediately, so no big deal. You will do it many more times in your flying, as does everyone. Every pilot makes mistakes. The most important thing is to recognize your mistakes and know how to correct them before they cause an issue. Blue skies!
I really do enjoy watching people on their first solos and things. I remember my first solo like it was yesterday. Mistakes are inevitable but for me the one thing that got me over my fear of mistakes on the radio is knowing they know you're a student, and usually are willing to work with you. Once you get comfortable enough to really have faith in tower and regard them almost as a second pair of eyes, it gets the nerves off a lot of your solo flying. It did for me anyway. All the best to you.
Nicely done! I just had my first solo a few weeks ago (still working on the video) so I can relate to how exciting it is. And don't worry, we all make some radio mistakes every once in a while :D
@@gravitysdaughtr Yes, can you find time to film some more little events and add them to your play list? Feel sure that they would be appreciated . Kind words - Jonny (UK)
That was fantastic! I didn’t see any mistakes! You’ll butcher more radio calls we all do! I was embarrassed making a flight following request on the CTAF once! 🤦♂️😂

Thank you for posting this !! I did my first solo at KEMT back in 2000 - So many good memories : ) You did a great job - we ALL make mistakes on our first solo, I forgot to turn on my transponder. LOL
Congratulations on your first solo. I can understand the feeling 🎉🎉. The mistake I can spot is as a student pilot you are not allowed to do touch and go's on solo as per FAR/AIM. But you did it really well congratulations again 👍👍🎉
I enjoyed watching your solo flight ! I enjoyed it because you were so graceful all throughout your solo flight, even though you were very nervous, I am sure.
@@gravitysdaughtr You did a great job on your first solo with very smooth landings! You probably found the cockpit a bit quieter without your CFI with you. Best wishes for you future aviation achievements.
Also when approaching a controlled field...tell them who you are....(N55580 the number of the cherokee 140 I soloed in).... where you are....and what you want to do. And when you shut down.... Turn off all electric ....then mixture....master...mags. my instructor is now a captain on a 737,
I’m a little behind you! Do you have your Instrument now? :) I hope to fly my first solo next week. I don’t feel too nervous about it so long as I don’t have an emergency;) “It’s super easy… until it isn’t.”
you are so cute!! i just did my first solo a couple months ago as well, i was so nervous my stomach was hurting lol you did so good!!!! i fly out of a non towered airport so i’m a bit jealous of ur skill to talk to atc lol
I wouldn't call myself Gravity's Daughter if I wanted to climb higher, haha :D Nevertheless, it's great job you've done, kept it calm! My first solo lasted for only 10 minutes, I mean I survived, it was just one flight by the pattern. I was happy as hell having taken off without my CFI first. An incredible feeling I'll never forget!
Landings look good. My biggest radio mistake was in response to " are you visual with the Fokker 100 on finals" I'll leave that to your imagination, however there was a lot of giggling in many flight decks around Edinburgh airport at the time... Happy days!
I love this! You did a fantastic job. All of your landings were flawless and you kept ahead of the plane. You're a fine pilot! I still remember my first solo like it was yesterday, cherish the memory. :)

Congratulations on your first solo. I can understand the feeling 🎉🎉. The mistake I can spot is as a student pilot you are not allowed to do touch and go's on solo as per FAR/AIM. But you did it really well congratulations again 👍👍🎉
Great job. Just don’t forget the mixture. Good luck.
How motivating it is to see you!!! CONGRATULATIONS.. looking forward to joining flight school in a few months.. thanks again. You did awesome! 😎
Thanks Oscar! Have fun
Nice job! I just had my first solo so know how you felt being up there all on your own. Definitely sweaty hands time!!
Nice!! Ha! definitely.
The hello bit was hilarious 😆 But seriously I hope to do as well as you on my first solo.
awesome , great job … congratulations 😊
Thank you!
O you done good, welcome to a larger world
Congratulations on a great first solo! It's a feeling you'll never forget. Your landings were very impressive. Great job.
Thanks J.P.!
"speaking in Greg" is fantastic.
I enjoyed watching your solo flight ! I enjoyed it because you were so graceful all throughout your solo flight, even though you were very nervous, I am sure.
Thanks so much Dennis!
Great job young lady! I failed to see what mistake was made!
Haha! Thanks!
Congrats on your first solo! Pretty girl, cool plane, nice place! Amazing!
BTW, flew in KEMT last week at MSFS 2020 ;)
Great Job! Congratulations! 🎉🎊🍾🎈
Thank you Frank!
Wooo! We just started training Lola for her Private. That all alone feeling is so trippy, right!? Like, oh snap. I've got to land this myself!
Exactly!
@@gravitysdaughtr You did a great job on your first solo with very smooth landings! You probably found the cockpit a bit quieter without your CFI with you. Best wishes for you future aviation achievements.
I would fly with you! Very well done. 🥰
Brilliant first solo, you were much calmer than I was! My niece has stated to fly in Florida aged 14, she’ll love your video.
Thank you so much! Whooo hooo go niece!!!
Welcome to the club! From Australia
thanks Matt!
Hell yeah!!! You go girl!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Also when approaching a controlled field...tell them who you are....(N55580 the number of the cherokee 140 I soloed in).... where you are....and what you want to do. And when you shut down....
Turn off all electric ....then mixture....master...mags. my instructor is now a captain on a 737,
Congratulations 🤙 keep up be safe out there I hope c u as airline pilot soon
Thank you so much!! Hopefully!
I’m a little behind you! Do you have your Instrument now? :) I hope to fly my first solo next week. I don’t feel too nervous about it so long as I don’t have an emergency;)
“It’s super easy… until it isn’t.”
Congratulations! Tell your friends how rewarding it is. We need more young ladies like yourself getting into aviation.
Thank you so much chriso!
Great job young lady. Keep at it and always stay safe and within your limits. Awesome solo.
Dont be that hard with yourself, no one excpects that you fly Perfect on your first Solo
you are so cute!! i just did my first solo a couple months ago as well, i was so nervous my stomach was hurting lol you did so good!!!! i fly out of a non towered airport so i’m a bit jealous of ur skill to talk to atc lol
I wouldn't call myself Gravity's Daughter if I wanted to climb higher, haha :D
Nevertheless, it's great job you've done, kept it calm! My first solo lasted for only 10 minutes, I mean I survived, it was just one flight by the pattern. I was happy as hell having taken off without my CFI first. An incredible feeling I'll never forget!
nice recovery on that first landing
Una fenómena!
Lovely ! I made my first solo flights 2 weeks ago! Awesome feeling ;) Keep going ! :) Congrats for nice landings.
Nice! I hope all went well. And thank you
Landings look good. My biggest radio mistake was in response to " are you visual with the Fokker 100 on finals" I'll leave that to your imagination, however there was a lot of giggling in many flight decks around Edinburgh airport at the time... Happy days!
I was expecting way more of a screw up than a little radio bobble. I still do that kinda stuff!
