All done with my final solo xc! Man was I nervous. My route was kmev,kcxp,Krno,krts,O02,2O1,kcic. Crossing the Sierra Nevada's all alone is a different experience. I can't believe how much more feel the plane has at sea level. Let alone the power! It was like the engine finally woke up. I was climbing at 850fpm! I'm use to 300 to sometimes 500fpm at my home field.
Now it's time to study up on for the oral exam. My instructor wants me to do the check ride/ oral in 2 weeks, but I'm not sure if I'm ready. I do expect before the end of July I'll get my ticket punched!
A little encouragement for other student pilots, just keep at it! For me i had high highs and low lows. Moments where I thought what the heck am I doing this for, but now I'm so close to the end of my basic training it's beginning to make a lot of sense why I decided to continue flying!
