Congratulations on getting your ppl. I hope to get mine before the year is
over.

You'll get it when you get it. Depending on what the weather is doing, and how
much time you have to consecrate, it can take longer.

Don't be impressed by the young ones who claim to have soloed after 7 hours and
were ready for the PPL well before the 40-hour limit. In today's regulatory
context, 60h is more typical.

It's a highly rewarding thing you're doing.
