April 23, 2024: First Solo Flight!

Today was the big day... Noah's instructor decided he was ready to go solo after about thirteen hours of instruction. 

 

First, a flight with the instructor

Frédéric and I waited in the hanger to watch Noah take off   

The feeling when you see the instructor climb out of the cockpit...

And hang out next to the runway...


See the video here:

Landing while his instructor looks on

We are much happier when he is back on the ground!

I don't think he is happier he's on the ground, but he's happy his flight went well!

His instructor said he did great! He asked Noah how he felt, and Noah replied, "On se sent très très bien quand même ; je m'attendais à pire." ("I feel really really good after all; I was expecting worse.")
