    SOLO!!!

    Ah thanks for the explanation. I belong to the camp of 30somethings that have always wanted to get their PPL but responsibilities didn't allow. Ive saved and saved of the years and have close to enough for a PPL. However I'm living in Germany at the moment so the PPL will wait till I get...

    SOLO!!!

    Congrats Transvection! Quick question from not-even-Student-Pilot-yet, how come she had you do a runup before each take off? Because of the cold temperatures, to take one extra safety measure to limit risk of engine trouble on takeoff?
