Default Got My Ticket today!!!!

After an additional 5.5 hours practicing forward slips to a landing and soft
field landings, I got my ticket today. I will admit it is exciting to
finally get your ticket checking to see if it's truly mine, yep, has my
name on it.

Now that the "pressure" is off, I plan to just fly and enjoy the scenery
while continuing to learn as much as I can concerning aviation.

Total hours - 78.4
Total time - First flight 5/1306....PPL ASEL Flight 5/12/06. (Should have
waited 1 more day to make it an even year )
Total cost - $4137.00 - this includes everything - instructor, fuel, books,
sectionals, etc.

My plan is to forge on and get Instrument Rated.

Thanks to all those who gave me moral support when I failed the first time.
