First practice area solo.

So I did my first solo in the practice area recently, wanted to get some comments on how it looks?

Not my best landing either

Audio stinks so recommend you keep it low.

Congrats on the first solo out to the practice area. It is always a great feeling to know you can get out there and back without getting lost.

That thing power on stalls like a kitten.
Nothing at all wrong with your landing.

Fun times.

Bubble Canopy, reclined seats, high deck angle before stall... Diamonds make you feel like you're going straight up when you perform a power on stall.

(trained in a DA20)

...if the next person to use the plane is another pilot and not an A&P then your landing was fine. Congrats!

Ya it is crazy how nose up it gets compared to the 172 I started in!
